Now that setup is complete, you must choose a location to place the
outdoor sensor and the display unit. The sensor MUST be placed less
than 165 feet (50 m) away from the display unit.
This wireless weather forecaster uses radio frequency for
communication, which is susceptible to interference from other electronic
devices and large metallic items or thick walls. Place both units at least
3 feet (.91 m) away from appliances (TV, microwave, radios, etc.) or
objects that may interfere with the wireless communication (large metal
surfaces, thick stone walls, etc.).

Placement of Display Unit
Place the display unit in a dry area free of dirt and dust. To
help ensure accurate indoor temperature measurement, place
the display unit out of direct sunlight, and away from heat
sources or vents. There are 2 placement options for the display
unit. You may hang the unit on a wall using the integrated
hang hole. Alternatively, the unit stands upright on a table top
or other flat surface.
Placement of Sensor
The sensor MUST BE PLACED OUTDOORS to observe outdoor
temperatures. The sensor must be placed less than 165 feet
(50 m) from the display unit. The sensor is water resistant and
is designed for general outdoor use. However, to extend the
life of the product, place the sensor in an area protected from
direct weather elements. To ensure accurate outdoor
temperature measurement, place the sensor out of direct
sunlight and away from heat sources.
There are 2 placement options for the sensor. You may hang it
using one of the two integrated hang holes, or use string (not
included) to hang it from a suitable location, like a well
covered tree branch.
