BEFORE YOU BEGIN

• We recommend using alkaline batteries for the remote
sensor and the main unit. When outdoor temperatures
are below 0°C (32°F), it is recommended to use lithium
batteries.
• Avoid using rechargeable batteries. (Rechargeable
batteries cannot maintain correct power requirements.)
• ALWAYS install batteries in the remote sensor before the
main unit.
• Insert batteries before first use, matching the polarity in
the battery compartment.
• Press RESET after each battery change with a paper clip
or similar tool.
• During initial set up, place the remote sensor close to the
main unit.
• After reception is established (remote readings will
appear on the main unit's display), position the remote
sensor and the main unit within the effective transmission
range of up to 100 feet (30 meters).
• The main unit must be placed indoors.
NOTE:
• Avoid pressing any buttons on the main unit before the
remote readings are displayed.
• Transmission or reception range may be affected by
trees, metal structures, electronic appliances,
surrounding building materials and how the main unit and
transmitter are positioned.
• Place the remote sensor so that it faces the main unit
(receiver), minimizing obstructions such as doors, walls
and furniture.
• Though the remote sensor is weather-resistant, they
should be placed away from direct sunlight, rain or snow.
The optimal location for the remote sensor outdoors is
under the eaves on the north side of the building.
