Outside Air Temperature Indicator Calibration: Calibration

The outside air temperature indicator's displayed temperature can be recalibrated 3°F to meet the customer's expectations.

1. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
2. Push and hold the trip/reset switch for 10 seconds. While you continue to hold the button, the display will scroll through temperature settings from +3°F to -3°F as shown.

3. When the desired correction value appears on the display, release the buttons, and the recalibrated outside air temperature will be displayed.

   Each time a desired correction value is entered, it replaces the previous value.

   Example: 

   Incorrect value =  68°F

   Desired correction value =  +2°F

   Corrected value =  70°F

   Desired correction value =  - 2°F

   New corrected value =  66°F

   NOTE: To recalibrate the display to the true temperature, remove the outside air temperature sensor (A), but leave it connected. Submerge the sensor and a thermometer (B) in a container of ice water (C). Select the calibration mode as described above, then recalibrate the display to the true temperature.
