About Honeywell digital thermometers sold in The Netherlands.

They default to Celsius, but they can be switched between the two. From the
FAQ:

e. Op mijn Chronotherm IV verwarmen/koelen staat de temperatuur in graden
Fahrenheit. Kan ik dat omzetten naar graden Celsius?
Jazeker. Dit kunt u omzetten. Een en ander staat vermeld in de
gebruiksaanwijzing. U kunt altijd contact opnemen met de Infolijn wanneer u
er zelf niet uitkomt.

A person has one that defaults to Fahrenheit and asks how to change it.
He/she is informed that it is possible. The way to do it can be found in the
instructions  and if the person gets into trouble he or she can call the
help line. This means that all these thermometers are dual, they can be set
to preference, they default to Celsius in metric countries, but very
sporadically one can slip through that defaults to Fahrenheit.
