For best results:
Place the sensor out of direct sunlight and
moisture.
•
Do not place the sensor more than 30 meters (100
feet) from the main (indoor) unit.
•
Position the sensor so that it faces the main (indoor)
unit, minimizing obstructions such as doors, walls,
and furniture.

Wireless Indoor / Outdoor Thermometer
with Digital Clock
Place the sensor in a location with a clear view to
the sky, away from metallic or electronic objects.
Position the sensor close to the main unit during cold
winter months as below-freezing temperatures may
affect battery performance and signal transmission.

GETTING STARTED
POWER
Wireless ranges can be impacted by a variety of factors
such as extremely cold temperatures. Extreme cold
may temporarily reduce the effective range between the
sensor and the base station. If the unit’s performance
fails due to low temperature, the unit will resume proper
functioning as the temperature rises to within the
normal temperature range (i.e. no permanent damage
will occur to the unit due to low temperatures).
OVERVIEW
Insert batteries before first use, matching the polarity
(+ and -).
