Calibration
Digital thermometers that have a bead type 
thermistor sensor such as the model 9867 seldom 
require recalibration or testing. The reason for this is 
the long-term stability of the thermistor sensor. 
Nevertheless, if it is desirable to calibrate to a 
specific temperature the following procedure is 
recommended if recalibrating at 32°F (0°C).
1. Fill a container with crushed or chipped ice.
2. Add water slowly until it overflows.
3. Add more ice until it is packed tightly to the 

bottom of the container, allowing excess to 
overflow.
