batteries.
shows when batteries are low.
NOTE The non-volatile flash memory enables the unit
to store your settings in the event of temporary power loss.
NOTE Do not use rechargeable batteries. It is
recommended that you use alkaline batteries with this
product for longer performance. Please dispose of used
batteries properly to prevent harm to the environment.
Standard Alkaline batteries contain significant amounts
of water. Because of this they will freeze in low temperatures
of approximately 10˚F (-12˚C). Disposable Lithium batteries
have a much lower threshold for temperature with an
estimated freezing range of below -40˚F (-40˚C). The
Liquid Crystal Display in outdoor thermometers will remain
operational to -20˚F (-28˚C) with adequate power.
Wireless ranges can be impacted by a variety of factors
such as extremely cold temperatures. Extreme cold may
temporarily reduce the effective range of the unit. If the
unit's performance fails due to low temperature, the unit
will resume proper functioning as the temperature rises to
within the normal temperature range (i.e. no permanent
damage will occur to the unit due to low temperatures).

DIFFERENT DISPLAY MODES

The LCD displays different types of information depending
upon the display mode. Display modes can be subdivided
into 2 basic categories:
1.
Clock Display Mode: Relates to functions of time and
date, shows current time, date or alarm time and
status for either alarm.
2.
Radio Status Mode: Displays information specific to
the early-warning functions of the radio.
