INSTALLATION & SET UP
Operating Range of Batteries
Severe cold (below -4º F/-20º C) can cause alkaline batteries to freeze and function improperly. Use lithium batteries in extremely low-temperature conditions to ensure continued operation.
Main UnitThe Main unit is intended for indoor use only. When deciding where to put the main unit, choose a dry location away from dust, dirt, mold, and smoke, and avoid temperature extremes. Do not drop the main unit. It is a sensitive electronic device and is not designed to withstand high-impact blows.NOTE: Install batteries in the MAIN UNIT before putting batteries in the wireless sensor.Main Unit Batteries: On the back of the unit, remove the battery compartment cover.Insert 2 AA alkaline (or lithium) batteries making sure they are installed according to the correct polarity (+/-). Replace the cover.Wireless Sensor This water-resistant wireless sensor is intended for outdoor use. When deciding where to place the sensor, make sure it will be protected from direct sunlight and from precipitation. Do not drop the remote sensor. It is sensitive, and not designed to withstand high-impact blows.Wireless Sensor Batteries: On the back of the wireless sensor unit, remove the battery compartment cover. Insert 2 AAA alkaline (or lithium) batteries making sure they are installed according to the correct polarity (+/-). Replace the cover. You may need to wait a few minutes after batteries are installed for the units to communicate with each other. When they do, both the indoor and outdoor temperatures will be shown on the main unit LCD display. If nothing is displayed, refer to section 4 of this manual for troubleshooting.NOTE: The sensor’s LED flashes momentarily whenever it sends information – about once each minute.
Placement & MountingChoose a location for each unit that is at least 10 feet away from other electronic devices that may interfere with the wireless signal.
