USING THE SENSOR TO DETECT OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE (See 3)

The main unit comes with an outdoor sensor. Using the sensor, the unit is capable of measuring and displaying outdoor temperature by receiving data transmitted from the sensor placed at another location.

1. Place the sensor in a desired open area. The place must be within 50 meters away from the main unit. Make sure the sensor is loaded with batteries.
2. For the first time using the outdoor sensor and the main unit, press RESET located on the sensor back, and RESET located in the bottom of the main unit. Then, the main unit will begin to receive transmission from the sensor.
3. To update the outdoor temperature from the sensor at any time, press and hold AUTO SCAN for 5 seconds.

→ The temperature will be updated from the sensor about every 3 minutes.

→ When the outdoor temperature is updating with the sensor searching, is displayed on the main unit.

To improve the sensor reception:

In case of intermittent/no connection,

• Slide the CHANNEL switch to Channel 2 or 3, located in the battery compartment of the sensor, then repeat the setup connection described above.
• Reduce the distance between the sensor and the main unit.

- Press and hold AUTO SCAN for about 3 seconds to start searching for the remote sensor signal.

Note:

Each time you change a channel, press RESET on both the sensor and the main unit, then press and hold AUTO SCAN on the main unit to search for the sensor. INDOOR TEMPERATURE

The set can also automatically measure and display the current temperature in Centigrade.

• Press DISPLAY to toggle the display between indoor temperature and outdoor temperature.
• Press and hold DISPLAY to cyclically display indoor temperature, outdoor temperature, and day of the week.

→ Ⓗ is displayed.

To select between °C or °F readings, use the (°C/°F) slide switch (located in the battery compartment).

LOW BATTERY INDICATION

When the batteries of the sensor are running low, the low battery icon will be displayed on the main unit or the sensor, indicating that the batteries should be replaced soon.

• Do not expose the set to humidity, rain, sand, or excessive heat caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight.
• To clean your set, use a soft damp cloth or chamois leather. Do not use cleaning products that contain benzene, thinner, etc., as these may harm the housing.
