User-defined Temperature Range
The default comfort temperature range for the baby’s bath water
is 90°F to 100°F (32°C to 37°C). To set a new water-temperature
range to the desired level:
1. Mix the water thoroughly to help ensure the temperature
is even.
2. Press and hold MEMORY for two seconds.
3. Place the unit in the water, ensuring the thermo sensor on the
base of the unit is submerged in the water. While the unit is
taking a measurement, MEMORY flashes on the display and
the unit beeps for up to 10 seconds. Three short beeps will
sound to confirm the measurement has been stored.
4. The measured temperature appears on the LCD.

Notes:
• To display the user-defined water temperature, press MEMORY.
• The unit defines the temperature + or – 3.6°F (+ or – 2°C)
of the temperature stored. For example, if the temperature re-
corded is 80.6°F (27°C), any reading below 77°F (25°C)
appears on the LCD as Cold and any reading above 84.2°F
(29°C) appears on the LCD as Hot.

temperature is between 32°F and 98.6°F (0°C and 37°C). There-
fore, if the recorded temperature is 96.8°F (36°C) (the comfort
temperature range is from 93.2°F to 98.6°F (34°C to 37°C). The
