MOUNTING THE WIRELESS CONTROLLER

• Metallic structures, appliances or magnetic fields in the vicinity of transceiver or
wireless water controllers may reduce signal strength.
NOTE
• Do not install wireless water controllers near a heat source, such as a cook top, stove
or oven. Heat, steam, smoke and hot oil may cause damage.
• Do not install wireless water controllers in direct sunlight.
• Do not install wireless water controllers outdoors unless protection from dust
ingress and sunlight are provided.

and other conditions. If the signal strength is weaker than '2 bars' during installation, there may be
other times when the signal is too weak to allow operation.
2. Slide the wireless controller from its' wall mounting bracket.
3. Use the wall mounting bracket as a template to mark off and drill 2 holes for use with mounting
