1. Press CHANNEL to select channel 1-3 or indoor.

2. Press MEMORY to view the selected channel's

records.

Press MEMORY to toggle between current, maximum

ICE WARNING

The temperature range at which water begins to freeze
and turns to ice is approx. 37

F (3

C) to 28

F (-2

C). It

is during this period that ice becomes most slippery,
creating hazardous surface conditions dangerous for
travelling.

The BAR609HGA’s Ice Warning feature gives out
temperature readings to warn you when the temperature
is approaching freezing. If Channel 1 sensor falls
between 37

F to 28

F (3

C to -2

C), the freeze alert

icon will flash on the main unit display.

HEAT INDEX

Heat index is the temperature the body feels when heat
and humidity are combined. The temperature you feel
does not always correspond to the actual air temperature

and relative humidity. The heat index (apparent
temperature) is how hot the heat-humidity combination
makes you feel.

The BAR609HGA’s heat index feature advises 4 levels
of warning if the temperature is high.

• To display the heat index, press HEAT INDEX.

• To toggle between current / maximum / minimum

readings, press HEAT INDEX, then press CHANNEL
to select channel 1-3 or indoor, followed by MEMORY.

• To toggle between temperature / humidity and heat

index display, press and hold HEAT INDEX for 2
seconds. Press HEAT INDEX again to stop this
feature.

NOTE If the heat index is below 80

F / 26

C, or the

desired channel is not working, the heat index will display
“NA”.
