Placement for Maximum Accuracy
AcuRite sensors are sensitive to surrounding environmental conditions. Proper
placement of both the display and the sensor are critical to the accuracy and
performance of this unit.
Display Placement
Place the display in a dry area free of dirt and dust. Display
stands upright for tabletop use and is wall-mountable.
Important Placement Guidelines
• To ensure accurate temperature measurement, place units out of direct sunlight
and away from any heat sources or vents.
• Display and sensor(s) must be within 330 feet (100 m) of each other.
• To maximize wireless range, place units away from large metallic items, thick
walls, metal surfaces, or other objects that may limit wireless communication.
• To prevent wireless interference, place units at least 3 feet (.9 m) away from
electronic devices (TV, computer, microwave, radio, etc.).
