K. BATTERY COMPARTMENT

• Requires two (2) CR2032 lithium cell batteries

L. TABLE STAND

When placing the main unit on the table or other horizontal surface, unfold and adjust the table stand for the desired viewing angle.

BATTERY INSTALLATION

Remove the battery door located at the back of the main unit.

Insert two (2) CR2032 lithium cell batteries and replace the battery compartment door.

PLACEMENT

Make sure that the main unit is locating within the operating range of all remote sensors.

Ideally the main unit should be placed within line of sight of remote sensors. Avoid placing the main unit where surfaces emitting and radiating heat (e.g. heating ducts or air conditioners) and areas with interference from wireless devices (e.g. cordless phones, radio headsets, baby monitoring devices and other electronics).

OPERATION

Once the main unit is powered, the display will show all available LCD segments for a moment. IMPORTANT: All of the display functions will be locked, allowing setting of your local altitude and pressure parameters by pressing the UP (? ) or DOWN (? ) and SET buttons. The locked display will show the pressure icon and abbreviation “inHg” flashing in the Weather Forecast/ Pressure Window, default time in Clock Window and channel 1’s temperature and humidity readings in Temperature/ Humidity Window.

If pressure and altitude are not configured during this time, the unit will self-calibrate in a few minutes and show the default settings for the pressure and altitude (sea level) and all remote weather sensors readings.
