data. To achieve a true temperature reading, avoid mounting where direct sunlight can reach the remote temperature sensor or Wireless Weather Station. While the remote temperature sensor is weather proof, avoid submersion in water or snow. We recommend that you mount the remote temperature sensor on an outside North-facing wall. The sending range is 330ft—obstacles such as walls, concrete, and large metal objects can reduce the range. Place both units in their desired location, and wait approximately 15 minutes before permanently mounting to ensure that there is proper reception. The Wireless Weather Station should display a temperature in the OUTDOOR LCD within 4 minutes of setting up.
