• Immediately remove and dispose of dead batteries from the product.

• Avoid storing, charging or using the device in extreme temperatures and extremely low atmospheric pressure(for example, at high altitudes).

Note Beforeuse, ensureyou insert the batteries in the measuring station rst and then in the base station. Measuring station

• Open the battery compartment (28) and remove the contact breaker.

• Then close the battery compartment cover.

• The status LED lights up. Base station

• Open the battery compartment (24) and remove the contact breaker.

• Then close the battery compartment cover.

• Note that the stations have to be resynchronised each time after you change the batteries in the measuring or base station.

• Todothis, remove the batteries from the other station and then reinsert them, or change them as required. Measuring station

• Ifthe symbol is displayed (next to ‘OUTDOOR’), replace the two AA batteries of the measuring station with two new ones.

• Open the battery compartment (28), remove and properly dispose of the dead batteries and insert two new AA batteries with the correct polarity.Then close the battery compartment cover. Base station

• Ifthe symbol is displayed (next to ‘INDOOR’), replace the three AAA batteries in the base device with new ones.

• Open the battery compartment (24), remove and properly dispose of the dead batteries and insert three new AAA batteries with the correct polarity.Then close the battery compartment cover (24).

• Werecommend initially placing the base and measuring stations in the intended locations without installing them and making all the settings described in 6. Operation –todo.

• Only install the stations once the appropriate settings have been made and a stable wireless connection is established. Note

• The wireless transmission range between the measuring station and base station is up to 30 minopen spaces.

• Beforeinstallation, ensurethat wireless transmission will not be disrupted by interference or obstacles like buildings, trees, vehicles, high-voltage lines, etc.

• Toavoid transmission interference, do not operate adjacent wireless devices on the same frequency (433 MHz).

• Beforethe nal installation, ensurethat thereissucient reception between the intended installation locations.

• When installing the measuring station, ensurethat it is protected from direct sunlight and rain.

• The international standardheight for measuring air temperatureis1.25 m(4ft) above ground. Warning

• Buy special or suitable installation material from aspecialised dealer for wall-mounting.

• Ensurethat no faulty or damaged parts areinstalled.

• Never apply force during installation. This could damage the product.

• Beforeinstallation, ensurethat the chosen wall is suitable for the weight to be mounted, and make surethat thereare no electrical wires, water,gas or other lines at the installation site on the wall.

• Donot mount the product above locations wherepersons might linger.

• Use the base to position the base station on alevel surface.

5.2 Measuring station

• You can also position the measuring station on alevel outdoor surface.

• Werecommend installing the measuring station securely on an outdoor wall using the recess (27).

• Install an anchor,screw,nail, etc. in the wall of your choice.4

• Hang up the base/measuring station using the opening (27) intended for this purpose.

6.1 Connection to the measuring station

• When the batteries have been inserted, the base station automatically searches for a connection to the measuring station and to the radio signal. Note

• The respective symbols will ash during the connection attempts: connection to the measuring station, connection to the DCF signal

• Donot press any buttons during setup. Otherwise, values may not be transmitted correctly and thereisarisk of value errors and inaccuracies.

• Donot change the location of the base station during the search processes.

• The process is completed when the indoor (8) and outdoor (3) measurement data is displayed.

6.2 Basic and manual settings

Automatic setting using the DCF signal When the base station has been switched on for the rst time and successful transmission has been established between the base station and the measuring station, the clock will automatically search for the DCF signal. During the search, the radio symbol ashes. Display Search for the DCF signal Flashing display Manual entry not possible! Active Constant display Successful – signal is being received No display Inactive

• Ifthe station still does not receive asignal, press and hold the UP button (19) for approximately 3seconds to start the manual search for the DCF signal. The radio symbol starts to ash. Note –Time settings

• The search process can take up to 7 minutes. If it fails, the radio symbol will go out.

• Inthe meantime, however,you can set the time and the date manually. Note –T ime settings

• The clock automatically continues to search for the DCF signal on adaily basis (at 1 am and 5am). If the signal is received successfully,the manually set time and date areoverwritten. Note –Summer time The clock automatically switches to summer time. appears on the display as long as summer time is activated. Manual settings

• Press and hold the SET button (20) for approximately 3seconds to make the following settings one after the other:
