Problem Solving

1.If the LCD readout is faint, replace the batteries.

2.If outdoor temperature does not display on the base unit:

a)Press the “SYNC” button to trigger a signal from the base to the remote;

b)Relocate remote sensor if it is obstructed from weather condi- tions or in contact with an object that might affect tempera- ture readings (hot metal object, snow, etc.)

c)Remove and reinstall all batteries, using new fully charged batteries;

d)Repeat set-up procedures;

e)Place the remote sensor closer to the base unit;

e)Position the base and remote within range and without interfer- ing obstructions between units.

3.If new batteries are faulty on the initial installation, install fresh batteries. If you did not notice the Low Battery icon warning and the product performed correctly after initial set up, the batteries have lost their charge. Replace the batteries (see To Power and Set Up the Weather Forecaster).

General Information

Display Information

If the base unit does not receive a transmission from a remote channel for 1 hour, the display will show dashes. Press the “SYNC” button to send a signal manually. Check that the base and re- mote are within a 200 foot range. Check that there are no major obstacles between the units that may block signals, such as build- ings, trees, etc. Try to have no more than 2 or 3 walls between the units. Try various locations and shorten the distance between units if necessary.

Over- or under- temperature range displays: If the temperature is outside the unit’s temperature range of -4°F to 158°F / -20°C to 70°C (with use of lithium batteries), the LCD will show “HH” (higher than the temperaturerange) or “LL” (lower than the temperature range). When temperatures are within the range, the readings will return. If necessary, relocate the remote sensor away from loca- tions with extreme temperatures (such as snow or a hot surface).
