The minimum/maximum memories are cleared when the thermometer is turned off.
TEMPERATURE ALARM
While taking measurements, press the LO AL or HI AL button to set an alarm at a desired minimum (LO AL) or maximum (HI AL) temperature limit.
Press and hold the button to rapidly advance the display.
Once the desired alarm temperature appears on the display, wait 3 seconds, the temperature alarm point will be set and the display will return to the current temperature reading.
“LOW” and/or “HI” will show on the display indicating the alarm has been set.
The alarm will sound 4 beeps per minute when the measured temperature equals or is greater than the maximum or less than the minimum set values. To silence/stop the alarm, press any button while the unit is alarming.

BENCH STAND

ALL OPERATIONAL DIFFICULTIES
If this thermometer does not function properly for any reason, replace the battery with a new high quality battery (see “Battery Replacement” section). Low battery power can cause any number of “apparent” operational difficulties.
Replacing the battery with a new fresh battery will solve most difficulties.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
Erratic readings, a faint display, no display, or
appearing on the display are all indications that the battery must be replaced. Flip open the bench stand and slide the battery cover off in the direction of the arrow. Remove the exhausted battery and replace it with a new 1.5 volt silver-oxide 357 size battery. Make certain positive (+) side is visible. Replace battery cover. Close the bench stand.
