The BAA928U is able to measure temperatures within -50°C
(-58°F) and +70°C (+158°F). If the temperature goes above or
below these amounts, the display will show a flashing "70" or
"-50".
NOTE ON OUTDOOR-REMOTE
TEMPERATURE
Once batteries are in place for the remote unit, it will start transmit-
ting samplings at 30-second intervals.
If no signals are received when the outdoor-remote temperature is
selected, blanks will be displayed. Press and hold the THERMO
button to enforce a search. This is useful in synchronizing the
transmission and reception of the remote and main units.
If that fails, check if the remote unit is still in place. Make sure the
transmission is within range and path is clear of obstacles and
interference.
Repeat this procedure whenever you find discrepancies between
the reading shown on the main unit and the remote unit.
NOTE ON °C AND °F
The outdoor temperature display on the main unit is determined by
the selection of the °C/°F slide switch of the main unit. Whatever
selection is on the remote sensor, it will only apply to the remote
sensor. The temperature will be automatically converted to the
selected setting of the main unit.
MAXIMUM AND MINIMUM
TEMPERATURES
The maximum and minimum recorded temperatures will be auto-
matically stored in memory. To display them, press MEMORY to
alternate between the maximum, minimum and current tempera-
tures. The respective MAX or MIN indicator will be displayed.
To clear the memory, press MEMORY button and hold for three
seconds. The maximum and minimum recorded temperatures will
be erased. Subsequently, if you press MEMORY after the memory
has been erased, the maximum and minimum temperature will have
the same values as the current reading.
TEMPERATURE TREND
The temperature trend indicator shows the trend of temperatures
collected at that particular remote sight. Three trends, rising, steady
and falling, will be shown.

the next 12 to 24 hours. It may not necessarily reflect the current
situation.
3. The "Sunny" icon, as applies to night time, implies clear weather.
INDOOR RELATIVE HUMIDITY
Third from the top, the indoor relative humidity is automatically
detected. The reading is displayed in the relative humidity win-
dow.
Like temperature, the maximum and minimum relative humidity
will be stored in memory. Use the MEMORY button to alternate
between the maximum, minimum, and current relative humidity.
The respective MAX and MIN indicator will be displayed.
To clear the memory, press MEMORY button and hold for three
seconds. The maximum and minimum temperatures will be erased.

COMFORT LEVEL
