BEFORE YOU BEGIN

1.We recommend using alkaline batteries for the main unit and remote sensor.

2.Avoid using rechargeable batteries.

3.Insert batteries before first use, matching the polarity as shown in the battery compartment.

4.Always install batteries in the remote sensor before the main unit.

5.Press RESET after each battery change, using a paper clip or similar tool.

6.During an initial setup, place the main unit as close as possible to the remote sensor.

7.After reception is established (remote temperature will appear on the receiver’s display), position the remote sensor

and main unit within the effective transmission range of

100feet.

NOTE:

1.Avoid setting the time and date on the main unit before the outdoor temperature is displayed.

2.The effective operating range may be influenced by the surrounding building materials and how the receiver and transmitter are positioned.

3.Position the remote sensor so that it faces the main unit (receiver), minimizing obstructions such as doors, walls, and furniture.

4.Though the remote sensor is weather-resistant, it should be placed away from direct sunlight, rain or snow.

BATTERY INSTALLATION

REMOTE SENSOR

NOTE: Install the batteries; select the channel and type of temperature (ºC/ºF) before you mount the sensor.

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

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

3.If you are using more than one sensor, select a different channel for each sensor.

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

5.Replace the battery compartment door and secure the screws.

6.Secure the remote sensor in the desired location.

BATTERY INSTALLATION:

MAIN UNIT

1.Open the battery compartment door.

2.Install two batteries (UM-3 or “AA” size 1.5V) matching the polarity as shown in the battery compartment.

3.Replace the battery compartment door.

LOW BATTERY WARNING

A low-battery indicator [ ] will appear on the indoor or outdoor temperature reading line of the main unit warning that the corresponding sensor’s batteries have to be replaced.

HOW TO USE THE TABLE STAND

The main unit has an unfolding table stand on the back, that supports it on the flat surface. The main unit can also be mounted on the wall using the recessed screw hole. The 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 sensors will transmit temperature readings at 45 second intervals. The main unit may take up to 2 (two) minutes to receive the initial readings. Upon successful reception, remote temperature will be displayed. Then the main unit will automatically update readings at 45-second intervals.

If no signals are received from the remote sensor within

(2) two minutes, dashes “ ” will be displayed.

Press and hold [DOWN] button on the main unit for 2 seconds to initiate another signal search.

CHECKING REMOTE AND INDOOR TEMPERATURES

The wave icon on the main unit located near the remote sensor reading line indicates a good reception from the remote sensor. If the temperature goes above or below the temperature operating range stated in specifications, the display will show dashes “ ”.
