This allowance is typically enough for a frame wall with non- metallic siding; however certain materials can reduce range even further. Metal siding, stucco, and some types of glass can reduce signal range by as much as ¾ or more, compared to the ½ reduction typical of most obstructions. It is possible to receive a signal through these materials, however maximum range will be much less due to their tendency to absorb or reflect a much larger portion of the sensor’s signal.
Note:
When opening the battery cover make sure that the batteries do not spring free from the contacts since this will cause start and transmission problems.
Battery Change:
It is recommended to replace the batteries in the unit approximately every 3 years to ensure optimum accuracy.
