OPERATION

Using the Thermometer

High & Low Records
The display will automatically cycle through today, 48 hour, and all-time high
& low temperature records. All-time high & low records reflect the minimum
and maximum temperature recorded since the unit was powered on, since
the batteries were changed, or since it was manually reset (whichever was
most recent). To manually reset the high/low records currently being viewed,
press and hold the UP or DOWN button on the back of the display unit for
3-5 seconds.

Flashing of the outdoor temperature is generally an
indication of wireless interference.
1. Bring both the sensor and display unit indoors and
remove at least one battery from each.
2. Reinstall the battery in the outdoor sensor.
3. Reinstall the battery in the display unit.
4. Let the units sit within a couple feet of each other
for about 20 minutes to gain a strong connection.
 Relocate the display unit and/or the outdoor sensor.
The units must be within 165 ft (50 m) of each other.
 Make sure both units are placed at least 3 feet (.9 m)
away from electronics that may interfere with the
wireless communication (such as TVs, microwaves,
computers, etc).
 Use standard alkaline batteries (or lithium batteries in
sensor when temperature is below -4ºF/-20ºC). Do not
use heavy duty or rechargeable batteries. NOTE: It
may take up to 20 minutes for display unit and sensor
to synchronize after batteries are replaced.
 Make sure both the display unit and outdoor sensor
are placed out of direct sunlight and away from any
heat sources or vents.
 Check that the batteries are installed correctly.
Batteries may need to be replaced.
