Using other electrical products such as headphones or speakers operating on the same signal frequency (868MHz) may prevent correct signal transmission and reception. Neighbors using electrical devices operating on the 868MHz signal frequency can also cause interference. Note: • When the 868MHz signal is received correctly, do not re-open the battery cover of either the transmitter or Temperature station, as the batteries may spring free from the contacts and force a false reset.
