A Temperature Calibration only needs to be performed once
per season. Changing this calibration will affect previously
harvested data.
1. Place Combine in Shady Spot
Leave the combine parked in a shaded area or a shed for a few
hours. The temperature calibration should not be performed if the
sensor has been in direct sunlight or is sitting next to grain.
