Accuracies are given at ambient conditions of 18 ... 28°C, 65 ... 83°F.
*The temperature is the difference between the temperature of the operating conditions and the current ambient temperature.

Example:
Is the current ambient temperature greater than the temperature of the operating conditions
(50°C / 122°F (current ambient temperature)) - (40°C / 104°F (operating temperature)) = 10°C / 50°F
Is the current ambient temperature less than the temperature of the operating conditions
(0°C / 32°F (operating temperature)) - (-5°C / 23°F (current ambient temperature)) = 5°C / 41°F
