Ed,

The PA temperature has not been properly calibrated.

Check the menu entry for CAL TPA.  Turn the K2 off and let it acclimate 
to the ambient temperature, then set the value for CAL TPA to the room 
temperature in degC.
If you do not have a thermometer that reads in degC, convert from 
Fahrenheit by subtracting 32, then multiply by 5 then divide by 9.

73,
