The maximum and minimum recorded indoor temperatures and
those of each remote sensor are automatically stored in memory.
To display the indoor recorded temperatures, press [MEMORY]
once to display the maximum (MAX) temperature and once again
for the minimum (MIN) temperature.
To display temperature data from a remote sensor, select the
channel of that remote sensor. Press [MEMORY] once to display
the maximum (MAX) temperature and once again for the mini-
mum (MIN) temperature.
To clear the memory, hold down [MEMORY] for two seconds.
The maximum and minimum recorded temperatures will be erased.
When the memory has been cleared, the maximum and minimum
temperatures will be identical to the current temperature until new
readings are recorded.
INTERRUPTED SIGNALS
If the display for a particular channel goes blank on the main unit,
press [CHANNEL] and [MEMORY] at the same time for about
30-seconds to trigger a signal search between the remote sensor
and the main unit. If that does not reactivate signal reception, verify:
1. The remote sensor is still in position.
2. The low battery warning icon for both the remote sensor and
main unit are not displayed. Replace batteries if necessary.
3. The remote sensor is within the effective transmission range
(approximately 21 - 32 yards) to the main unit and that the
transmission path is clear of obstacles and interference. Shorten
the distance between the remote sensor and the main unit if
necessary.
NOTE: When the temperature falls below freezing point, the
batteries in the outdoor positioned sensor will freeze,
lowering the battery voltage supply and the effective
range.

WIRELESS TRANSMISSION

Signals from other household devices including door bells, home
security systems and entry controls, may interfere with those of
this product and cause temporary reception failure. This is normal
and does not affect the general performance of the product. The
transmission and reception of temperature readings will resume
once the interference ends.
The success of wireless transmission of data may vary and is
directly related to where the remote sensor is placed and the
environmental factors of that location. Should there be difficulty
in data transmission, verify:
1. The low battery warning icon is not displayed for the main unit
or the remote sensor. Replace batteries if needed.
2. The remote sensor has been placed within the stated effective
range (21 - 32 yards) of the main unit.
3. That there is no obstacle (like a transmission tower) or
environmental reason (such as a steep hill) which is causing the
interference or blockage between the remote sensor and the main
unit.
If the difficulty continues, reposition the remote sensor to a
different location and/or closer to the main unit.
