HOW TO USE THE TABLE STAND
The main unit has a removable table stand that supports it on the flat surface. Attach table stand to the bottom of the main unit in the slots provided. The unit can also be mounted on the wall using the recessed screw hole. The table stand must be removed prior to mounting. The remote sensor can be similarly mounted or placed on a flat surface.
GETTING STARTED
After batteries are installed; remote sensor will transmit temperature readings at 45 second intervals.
The main unit may take up to two minutes to receive the initial readings. Upon successful reception, remote temperature will appear on the top line of the main unit’s display. The main unit will automatically update readings at
If no signals received from the remote sensor within two minutes, dashes [ ] will be displayed. Press and hold DOWN ( ) button on the main unit for two seconds to initiate another signal search.

CHECKING REMOTE AND INDOOR TEMPERATURES The remote temperature information line is located on the top of the main unit’s display.
The wave icon is located above the remote channel number and indicates the reception status from the remote sensor. There are three following types of the reception status that may be displayed.
The unit is in searching mode.
Temperature readings are securely registered.
No signals detected. | ˚F |
The indoor temperature with the icon IN is located below the remote temperature information line.

WWVB RADIO CONTROLLED TIME
The NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) radio station (WWVB) is located in Ft. Collins, Colorado. It transmits an exact time signal continuously throughout the most of the continental United States at 60 KHz frequency. The Wireless Thermometer can receive this WWVB signal through the internal antenna from up to 2,000 miles away. Due to the nature of the Earth’s ionosphere, reception can be limited during the daylight hours. The radio controlled clock will search for an alternate station that receives the atomic time signal from the NIST Atomic clock in Boulder, Colorado.
The WWVB tower icon on the main unit’s display will flash indicating a radio signal reception from the WWVB station. If the tower icon is not fully lit, or if the time and date are not set automatically, please consider the following:
