If the wireless signal indicator shows no bars:
• Relocate the display 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 a few minutes for display and sensor to
synchronize after batteries are replaced.
Flashing of the outdoor temperature is generally an
indication of wireless interference.
1. Bring both the sensor and display indoors and
remove at least one battery from each.
2. Reinstall the battery in the outdoor sensor.
3. Reinstall the battery in the display.
4. Let the units sit within a couple feet of each other
for a few minutes to gain a strong connection.
• Make sure both the display and sensor are placed out
of direct sunlight and away from any heat sources or
vents (see page 5).
• Check that the batteries are installed correctly.
Batteries may need to be replaced.
