NOTE ON °C AND °F

The unit of temperature display is selected with the °C/°F slide switch. Select °C for Centigrade or °F for Fahrenheit.

Note that the remote temperature display on the main unit is dominated by the selection on the °C/°F slide switch of the main unit. Whatever the display units of the remote sensors are, they will be automatically converted to the chosen one of the main unit.

HOW TO READ THE KINETIC WAVE

DISPLAY

The kinetic wave display shows the signal receiving status of the main unit. There are three possible forms:

EN

DISCONNECTED SIGNALS

If without obvious reasons the display for a particular channel goes blank, press [CHANNEL] and [MEMORY] to enforce an imme- diate search. If that fails, check:

1.The remote unit of that channel is still in place.

2.The batteries of both the remote unit and main unit. Replace as necessary.

Note: When the temperature falls below freezing point, the batteries of outdoor units will freeze, lowering their voltage supply and the effective range.

3.The transmission is within range and path is clear of obstacles and interference. Shorten the distance when necessary.

The unit is in searching mode.

Temperature readings are securely registered.

No signals.

TRANSMISSION COLLISION

Signals from other household devices, such as door bells, home security systems and entry controls, may interfere with those of this product and cause temporary reception failure. This is normal and does not affect the general performance of the product. The transmission and reception of temperature readings will resume once the interference recedes.
