For best results:

Insert the batteries and select the channel before you mount the sensor.

Place the sensor out of direct sunlight and moisture.

Do not place the sensor more than 98 feet (30 meters) from the main (indoor) unit.

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

Place the sensor in a location with a clear view to the sky, away from metallic or electronic objects.

Position the sensor close to the main unit during cold winter months as below-freezing temperatures may affect battery performance and signal transmission.

You may need to experiment with various locations to get the best results.

Standard Alkaline batteries contain signifcant amounts of water. Because of this they will freeze in low temperatures of approximately 10° F. Disposable Lithium batteries have a much lower threshold for temperature with an estimated freezing range of below -40°F. The Liquid Crystal Display in outdoor thermometers will remain operational to -20°F with adequate power.
