Battery installation

Remove the screws from the battery compartment with a small Phillips screwdriver.

Set the channel 1 through 3. The switch is located in the battery compartment. Channel 1 is typically selected if only one remote sensor is being used.

Install 2 “AA” size alkaline batteries (not included) matching the polarities shown in the battery compartment.

Replace the battery compartment door and secure the screws.

Secure the thermo-hygrometer remote sensor in the desired location.

Mounting

The remote thermo-hygrometer sensor can be placed on the flat surface or mounted on the wall in vertical position

Use the wall mount hardware and screws provided when mounting the thermo-hygrometer sensor on the wall

Placement tips:

The remote thermo-hygrometer sensor should be placed in the area with a free air circulation and sheltered from the direct sunlight and extreme weather conditions.

Ideally, place the thermo-hygrometer sensor above the natural surfaces (such as a grassy lawn).

Avoid placing the thermo-hygrometer sensor near sources of heat such as chimneys and heating elements.

Avoid any areas collecting and radiating a heat from the sun, such as metal, brick or concrete structures, paving, patios and decks.

The international standard for the valid air temperature measurements is 4 feet (1.25meters) above the ground.
