Open the battery compartment using a screwdriver to remove 4 screws at the back of the remote sensor. The remote is preset to channel “1”. If you are installing additional remotes, slide the channel selector switch to the desired channel. Insert (2) AAA batteries according to the polarity markings. Press the °C/°F button to select your desired setting. Open the battery door at the back of the base station and insert (2) AA batteries according to the polarity markings. You will hear an audible signal. NOTE: The battery compartment is sized for four batteries but only two are required. Insert the batteries in the top section with the spring contact. The other two positions can be used for battery storage. Replace the battery door. The base station will begin to look for the RF signal from the remote sensor. When the outdoor temperature and humidity readings are shown on the base station the connection is confirmed. The connection may take several minutes. Replace the battery compartment cover of the remote sensor. If the rectangular rubber gasket has been dislodged, re-position it properly in the rectangular channel to seal the battery compartment. Re-install 4 screws. Do not over-tighten the screws. Notes: • Do not mix old and new batteries. • Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon zinc), or rechargeable (nickel cadmium) batteries. • For maximum performance in normal conditions we recommend using good quality alkaline batteries. When temperatures are below 32°F, alkaline batteries can lose power resulting in a loss of remote transmission. If you reside in an area that experiences frequent temperatures below freezing, we recommend using lithium batteries to minimize the loss of transmission. Locating the Base Station and Remote Sensor • Choose a suitable place for the base station and remote outdoor sensor within the transmission distance. • Place the base unit near a window, but away from direct sunlight or sources of heat or air conditioning to ensure accurate temperature readings. • The remote sensor is water resistant, but not waterproof. Locate the sensor in an area where it will not be exposed to rain, snow or ice which can damage the electronic circuitry. • The location you choose is critical for maximizing the transmission range. The remote sensor is designed to transmit unimpeded 80 to 100 ft. Transmitting through walls, metal doors and metal framed windows may reduce the transmission range. To optimize the transmission distance, the remote should be positioned in a location that minimizes these obstructions. Interference from other sources such as home security systems, wireless doorbells and wireless home entertainment equipment may interrupt the transmission signal temporarily. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Before entering the following settings, wait until there are numerical readings in all fields of the LCD display. °C / °F Selection • Press the °C/°F button at the back of the base station to display the temperature in °C or °F on the base station.
