weather icons will be displayed. If they are not shown in LCD after
60 seconds, remove the batteries and wait for at least 60 seconds
before reinserting them.
4. The outdoor temperature from the first sensor (channel 1) should
then be displayed on the Weather Station. If this does not happen
and the signal reception icon is not shown, after 2 minutes, the
batteries will need to be removed from both units and reset from
step 1.
5. Insert the batteries to the second sensor as soon as the outdoor
temperature readings from the first sensor are displayed on the
Weather station.
NOTE: You must insert the batteries into the second sensor within 10
seconds of reception of the first sensor.
6. The outdoor temperature from the second sensor and the "channel
2" icon should then be displayed on the Weather Station. If this
does not happen after 2 minute, the batteries will need to be removed
from all the units and reset from step 1.
7. Insert the batteries to the third sensor as soon as the "channel 2"
icon and outdoor data are displayed on the Weather Station. Then
within 2 minutes, the channel 3 outdoor data from the third sensor
will be displayed and the channel icon will shift back to "1" once the
third sensor is successfully received. If this is not happen, user shall
restart the setting up from step 1.
NOTE: You must insert the batteries into the third sensor within 10
seconds of reception of the second sensor.
IMPORTANT: Transmission problems will arise if the setting for multiple
sensors is not followed as described above. Should transmission
problems occur, it is necessary to remove the batteries from all units
and start again the set-up from step 1.
VI. VIEWING AND OPERATING WITH MULTIPLE REMOTE
TEMPERATURE SENSOR UNITS
1. To view the temperature of a different remote temperature sensor
unit, press and release the CH button. A shift from one "boxed"
number to the next should be observed in the OUTDOOR LCD.
2. To view the Minimum/Maximum temperature: first select which
remote temperature sensor to read data from (indicated by the
"boxed" number), then press the OUT button. Pressing this button
once will display the minimum temperature, and the date and time
the data was recorded. Pressing this button a second time (while
"MIN" is still displayed, otherwise press the button twice) will display
the same data for the maximum recordings.

MAINTENANCE AND CARE INSTRUCTIONS
• Extreme temperatures, vibration, and shock should be avoided to
prevent damage to the units.
• Clean displays and units with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use solvents
or scouring agents; they may mark the displays and casings.
• Do not submerge in water.
• Immediately remove all low powered batteries to avoid leakage and
damage.
• Opening the casings invalidates the warranty. Do not try to repair
the unit. Contact La Crosse Technology for repairs.

6. To reset the Minimum/Maximum readings, it is necessary to select
which remote temperature sensor you wish to reset. Press and
hold the OUT button for 5 seconds, the records for the selected
remote temperature sensor unit will be reset.
MOUNTING
Note: Before permanently mounting ensure that the Wireless Weather
Station is able to receive WWVB signals from the desired location.
Also, extreme and sudden changes in temperature will decrease the
accuracy of the Wireless Weather Station, and changes in elevation
will result with inaccurate weather forecasting for the next 12 to 24
hours. These changes will require a 12 to 24 hour wait before obtaining
reliable data. To achieve a true temperature reading, avoid mounting
where direct sunlight can reach the remote temperature sensor or
Wireless Weather Station. While the remote temperature sensor is
weather proof, avoid submersion in water or snow. We recommend
that you mount the remote temperature sensor on an outside North-
facing wall. The sending range is 330ft-obstacles such as walls,
concrete, and large metal objects can reduce the range. Place both
units in their desired location, and wait approximately 15 minutes before
permanently mounting to ensure that there is proper reception. The
Wireless Weather Station should display a temperature in the
OUTDOOR LCD within 4 minutes of setting up.
I. THE REMOTE TEMPERATURE SENSOR
The remote temperature sensor should be mounted with the use of
screws.
A. MOUNTING WITH SCREWS
1. Remove the mounting bracket from the remote temperature sensor.
2. Place the mounting bracket over the desired location.
3. Through the three screw holes of the bracket, mark the mounting
surface with a pencil.
4. Screw mounting bracket onto the mounting surface. Ensure that

II. THE WIRELESS WEATHER STATION
The Wireless Weather Station can be mounted in two ways:
• with the table stand or,
• on the wall with the use of a wall hanging screw (not included).

TROUBLESHOOTING
NOTE: For problems not solved, please contact La Crosse Technology.
Problem: No reception of WWVB time signal.
Solution:
1. Wait overnight for signal.
2. Be sure Weather Station is at least 6 feet from any electrical devices,
such as televisions, computers, or other radio-controlled clocks.
3. Remove batteries for five minutes, reinsert and leave the unit alone
overnight without pressing buttons.
4. If there are still problems, contact La Crosse Technology
Problem: Hour is incorrect (minute and date are correct)
Solution:
Be sure correct time zone and daylight saving time settings are selected.
Problem: The LCD is faint
Solution:
1. Set the LCD contrast to a higher number
2. Replace batteries
Problem: No outdoor temperature is displayed.
Solution:
1. Remove all batteries, reinsert into sender first, then display.
2. Place remote sender closer to display.
3. Be sure all batteries are fresh.
4. Place Temperature Sensor and Weather Station in position so the
straight-line signal is not passing through more than two or three
walls.
Problem:
Temperatures do not match if units are placed next to each other.
Solution:
Each temperature sensor is manufactured to be accurate to within 2˚F
plus or minus and under normal conditions, so two sensors could be
as much as 4˚F different. However, the difference can be exaggerated
further because the sensors are designed for different working
environments. The indoor sensor is less responsive to ambient air
currents because of the shielding effect of the display's case. In addition,
the case can act as a heat sink to absorb and store heat from external
sources (i.e. handling of the case or radiant heat). Also, the much
greater range of the outdoor temperature sensor requires a different
calibration curve than the indoor range. Error is usually greater at the
extreme ends of a range, making it harder to compare different ranges
with different curves. Under non-laboratory conditions, it is difficult to
compensate for the above factors and obtain an accurate comparison.
