Low-Battery Detection:

Battery voltage is sampled every minute. When the
battery voltage drops to a certain level, the Low-
Battery warning indicator appears.
• The thermostat functions normally during
battery low. However, user must change the
batteries as soon as possible before they are
so weak that normal operation cannot be
assured.
• Battery voltage is determined as "low" when it is
less than or equal to 2.6V. It is determined as
normal when it is higher than or equal to 2.8V,
i.e. Low-Battery indicator must come out when
battery voltage is <= 2.6V, and must be turn off
when battery voltage is >= 2.8V.
• Battery voltage is only sampled in Normal mode
and when LCD backlight is turned off.
