Directions for theTalking Indoor-Outdoor Thermometer From Future Aids, The Braille Superstore.
Getting Started
Place your new thermometer on a table in front of you, with the screen facing away from you, and the probe on the left. Place the probe outside (such as through a window) so it can sense the outdoor temperature. The unit takes 2 AAA batteries, and the battery compartment is on the reverse side below the screen. Press the button to the right of the speaker (Talk) to hear the indoor and outdoor temperature.
This thermometer has a visual clock that does not talk and cannot be set audibly. If you can't get a friend to set the time for you, put the batteries in at midnight.
Function Buttons
There are 10 function buttons directly below the speaker and talk button. Slide back the plastic cover (on the end of the unit closest to you) to access these buttons.
--Top Left: Volume.
--Bottom row, 2nd from the left: Temperature switch. Left position speaks Celcius, right position speaks Fahrenheit.
--Top Right: Speak the day's high and low temperatures.
--Bottom Right: Speak the all-time high and low temperatures since the unit was powered up.
Note: to avoid automatic temperature announcements during night-time when the temperature drops below freezing, be sure the visual clock is set correctly. Then set the Hourly Report switch to the Off position. Such announcements will not be made outside of 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM when these steps are followed.
