5.2 Initial Placement
For accurate readings, place the thermometer/hygrometer in a location free from direct sunlight, drafts, or heat sources. The device can be placed on a flat surface or mounted on a wall using the integrated mounting hole on the back.
- Wall Mounting: Use a small screw (not included) suitable for your wall type. Hang the device securely.
- Tabletop Placement: Ensure the device is stable on a flat, level surface.
6. Operating Instructions
6.1 Display Overview
The large digital display shows two main values:
- Upper Display: Current temperature in degrees Celsius (°C).
- Lower Display: Current relative humidity in percentage (% RH).
- Comfort Level Indicator: A small icon (e.g., a smiley face) indicates the current indoor climate comfort level based on temperature and humidity.
6.2 Max/Min Function
The device records the maximum and minimum temperature and humidity values measured since the last reset. To access these values:
- Press the MAX/MIN button (if present, typically on the back or side). The display will show the maximum recorded temperature and humidity.
- Press the MAX/MIN button again to view the minimum recorded temperature and humidity.
- Press the MAX/MIN button a third time to return to current readings.
To reset the MAX/MIN values, press and hold the MAX/MIN button for a few seconds while viewing the MAX or MIN values. The memory will clear, and new maximum and minimum values will begin recording from that point.
6.3 Comfort Level Indicator
The comfort level indicator provides a quick visual reference for indoor climate conditions:
- Happy Face: Indicates optimal comfort (e.g., 20-25°C and 40-70% RH).
- Neutral Face: Indicates acceptable but not optimal conditions.
- Sad Face: Indicates uncomfortable conditions (e.g., too dry, too humid, too hot, or too cold).
Note: Specific ranges for comfort levels may vary slightly by model. Refer to the device's display for the exact icon representation.
7. Maintenance
7.1 Cleaning
Clean the device with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaning agents, solvents, or alcohol, as these can damage the surface and display.

- Open the battery compartment cover on the back of the device.
- Remove the old CR2 Lithium battery.
- Insert a new CR2 Lithium battery, observing the correct polarity (+/-).
- Close the battery compartment cover.
Note: After battery replacement, the device may reset, and MAX/MIN values will be cleared.
8. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No display or faint display | Battery is dead or incorrectly inserted. | Replace the battery with a new CR2 Lithium battery, ensuring correct polarity. |
| Inaccurate readings | Device is placed in an unsuitable location (e.g., near a window, heat source, or vent). | Relocate the device to a stable indoor environment away from direct influences. Allow 15-30 minutes for readings to stabilize. |
| Comfort indicator always shows the same face | Environmental conditions are consistently outside or within a specific comfort range. | This indicates the device is functioning correctly. Adjust your indoor environment if desired. |
