Quick start (detailed instructions follow):
1. Remove battery covers on display unit and remote sensor
2. Insert batteries in display unit first **important!
3. Insert batteries in remote unit(s) within three minutes
4. Replace battery covers, and wait five minutes before pressing any buttons. Set
time (below) and select measuring units (press the "°C/°F/+" button to toggle).
Detailed Battery Installation for the Display Unit
Please insert batteries for receiving unit before doing so for the remote units.
1. Remove the stand (if it is in place) by rotating the rear edge down.
2. Press and slide down to open the battery cover. Insert 2 pcs AAA size batteries with matching (+) and (-)
polarity marks on battery compartment. Then close the battery cover and install the stand back.
3. (---) dash icon will flash on the lower part of the LCD; it is now ready to register with the sensor(s) signal.
Detailed Battery Installation for the Remote Sensor Unit
Within three minutes of the battery installation of the receiving unit
1. Lift off the bracket stand by releasing the bottom two fixing snaps.
2. Use a small Phillips screwdriver to remove the screws on the battery cover.
3. Insert 2pcs AAA size batteries according to polarity mark on the battery compartment.
4. Once the batteries are inserted, the sensor will start transmitting temperature reading at 30 seconds intervals
automatically to the receiving unit.
5. The lower part of LCD of the receiving unit will display remote channel 1 and the temperature reading.
6. For each additional sensor (if applicable), press and hold the "- (Hold Seek)" button until it beeps, then insert
batteries in remote sensor(s).
7. When all sensors are registered, replace all battery covers.
Note
After you have placed the sensor in the remote location, if the (---) dash icon displays and flashes for one
channel, the signal has been lost. Try rotating the sensor in 45° steps, and wait at least 3 minutes after each
position change. If not, move the remote sensor closer to the receiving unit or reposition both receiving unit and
remote sensor until reception is observed, or limit the obstacles (such as wells) that lie in a straight path from
the sensor to the display. Also, be sure the display and sensor are away from possible sources of interference
such as other wireless products (weather stations, phones, baby monitors).
Setting the Clock
1. To set the clock, press & hold "MODE" button for 2 seconds. The 12 or 24 hr. is blinking.
2. Use the "+" or "- (Hold Seek)" button to select 12 hr (am/pm) or 24 hr. ("military") and then press "MODE"
3. The clock digits will blink, use "+" button to advance hour and "- (Hold Seek)" to advance minutes (each press
the button will increase the digits by one). Press "MODE" to confirm.
4. The offset will blink. Repeat the same procedure to enter time offset (optional to view second time location)

Using 6 foot Temperature Probe
Your wireless thermometer is equipped with a 6 feet cord temperature probe for measuring water, soil, or
temperatures below 32°F.
• Open the rubber covers of the hole at the side of the remote sensor and insert the probe plug completely.
• If the outside temperature is extremely low (below 32°F) extend the 6 feet probe cord, leave probe sensor
outside, and keep the remote sensor unit inside to avoid freezing the batteries.
• For measuring temperature in a freezer, keep sensor outside of freezer and run probe inside, taking care to
secure the wire to avoid damage from the door.. An alarm can also be set to warn of high temperature.
• The probe can be used at all times if desired (for air temperature) as it has a greater range of temperature.
Installation of Remote Sensor(s)
It is recommended to place the sensor on the North side of a house to avoid direct sunlight. Locating remote
sensor in clear open area can attain a maximum 100 ft. (30 meters) transmission distance. The actual
transmission distance can be reduced by walls between the remote sensor(s) and the receiving unit. The remote
sensor(s) can be hung on a flat wall by means of a screw or tape, or the bracket has a folding stand for use on a
horizontal surface, such as a table.
