GETTING STARTED

Note: To ensure proper reception between the main unit and the remote sensor, follow the instructions carefully.

BATTERY AND CHANNEL INSTALLATION

1.Place both units as close as possible to each other.

2.Assign a different channel to each remote sensor by changing the channel switch in the battery compartment of the remote sensor. [FIG A]

3.Select the units of measurement for the temperature display on the °C/ °F slide switch. [FIG B]

4.Install 2 alkaline batteries (UM-3 or "AA" size 1.5V) strictly according to the polarities shown. [FIG C]

5.Insert batteries or press the reset button of the main unit. Follow the instructions as set out in the user's manual.

6.Position the remote sensor and main unit within effective transmission range, which in usual circumstances, is 30 meters.

Note: The effective range may be limited by building materials and the position of either the main unit or remote sensors. Try various set-up arrangements for best result.

Though the sensor is weatherproof, and is meant for use outside, it should be placed away from direct sunlight, rain, or snow.

CHANGING CHANNELS

scratch the plastic parts and corrode the electronic circuit.

3.Do not subject the unit to excessive force, shock, dust, temperature or humidity, which may result in malfunction, shorter electronic life span, damaged battery and distorted parts.

4.Do not tamper with the unit’s internal components. Doing so will invalidate the warranty on the unit and may cause unnecessary damage. The unit contains no user-serviceable parts.

5.Only use fresh batteries as specified in the user’s manual. Do not mix new and old batteries as the old ones may leak.

6.Always read the user’s manual thoroughly before operating the unit.
