PAGE 11 NOTE: After replacing the batteries, you will need to perform the Setup and Learn Function procedures again. Refer to the GETTING STARTED and WIRELESS TRANSMISSION sections. PAGE 12 WIRELESS TRANSMISSION Environmental factors and signals from other household devices, such as remote entry controls, security systems, and computers, may interfere with the wireless transmission of this product and cause temporary reception loss. This is normal and does not affect the general performance of this product. Stable reception will resume once the interference ends. For optimal performance: Place the receiver and remote transmitter side by side about 1 metre apart, and allow the receiver and remote transmitter to synchronize for 10 minutes before you place the remote transmitter outdoors. The remote transmitter should be placed in a dry shaded area. NOTE: Fog and mist will not harm the remote transmitter but direct rain must be avoided. Mount the remote transmitter upright avoiding metallic objects and frames, such as window sills. Verify that there are no obstacles like a transmission tower or steep hill that can cause interference and blockage between the remote transmitter and receiver. CLOCK SETTING Press HOUR to set the hour. Press MIN to set the minute. Press ALARM/(°C/°F) during clock setting to change between 12 and 24 hour display. Press MODE or no key press for one minute will end clock setting. TEMPERATURE DISPLAY ALARM SETTING Press and hold MODE for 3 seconds to enter the Clock Setting mode. You will hear a beep and the time will blink. 1 5 Local (Indoor) Temperature Press HOUR to set the hour. Press MIN to set the minute. Press ALARM to toggle alarm on and off. When the alarm is set ON, the will beep. In the normal clock display, if the alarm is set ON, the will also appear on the display. DAY/NIGHT ICON The day/night icon will change automatically depending on the time of day. Scroll to the Alarm mode using MODE . The AL symbol will appear. SOLUTION The temperature data on the remote transmitter does not match the data displayed on the receiver. This may occur when you move the remote transmitter from one environment to another. For example, when you bring the transmitter from inside the warm house out to the cold exterior. In such a case, there will be a big change in temperature. The transmitter will record this change in temperature much quicker than it is able to transmit the data to the receiver (which is done once every minute). Therefore, you will temporarily get a difference in reading between the remote transmitter and receiver. The solution is to allow the remote transmitter some time to sit in its new location to reach equilibrium. This may take several minutes. Once the data is stable, the data displayed on the remote transmitter should match that displayed on the receiver. The temperature data on the remote transmitter does not match the data displayed on the receiver. This may also be the result of a temporary loss of reception due to interfering sources. Normal reception should resume once the interference ends. Refer to the WIRELESS TRANSMISSION section. The remote (outdoor) readout on the receiver is blinking. Re-synchronize the remote transmitter and receiver by pressing and holding CHN on the receiver for 3 seconds until a beep is heard. The temperature data from the remote transmitter will display on the receiver within 3 minutes. Refer to the WIRELESS TRANSMISSION (Manual Learn Function) section. The remote (outdoor) readout on the receiver is blinking. The receiver will not detect or receive the temperature data from the remote transmitter, even after the Manual Learn Function has been executed. Ensure the remote transmitter is away from any possible source of interference and electrical disturbances. You may try to reposition the remote transmitter in a different location and/or closer to the receiver. The remote transmitter does have a maximum range of 40 metres, but any walls or windows the signal has to pass through will reduce the distance. Due to the nature of the batteries, extreme cold temperatures may also affect the transmission range. Refer to the WIRELESS TRANSMISSION section and repeat the Manual Learn Function with the remote transmitter in a new location. THIS DEVICE COMPLIES WITH PART 15 OF THE FCC RULES. OPERATION IS SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING TWO CONDITIONS: 1. THIS DEVICE MAY NOT CAUSE HARMFUL INTERFERENCE, AND 2. THIS DEVICE MUST ACCEPT ANY INTERFERENCE RECEIVED, INCLUDING INTERFERENCE THAT MAY CAUSE UNDESIRED OPERATION.
