6. Getting started

6.1 Insert batteries

• Open the battery compartment of the display unit and the transmitter (screwed) and place both instruments on a desk with a distance of approximately 1.5 meter. Check that no other electronic devices are close.
• Insert the batteries 2 × 1,5 V AAA into the battery compartment of the transmitter and immediately afterwards 2 × 1,5 V AA in the display unit, observing the correct polarity.
• A brief beep tone will sound and all LCD segments will light up for a short moment.

• Note: DO NOT PRESS ANY KEY during the learning period. If the outdoor temperature is not displayed or if any key is pressed before the outdoor temperature signal is received and when changing batteries you will need to follow the battery installation procedure again. Please wait 10 seconds before inserting the batteries again.
• You can also start the outdoor transmitter search manually later on (for example when the outdoor transmitter is lost or the batteries are changed).

8. Additional transmitters

• If you like to connect additional remote sensors (max. 3), repeat the installation procedure for all extra sensors. The wireless thermometer will number the sensors in the order of set-up automatically.
• If you have installed more than one transmitter, press the RESET/CH/+ button to change between the outdoor transmitters. Display for channel 1 for channel 2 or for channel 3.

9. Positioning of display unit and transmitter

• Choose a shady and dry position for the transmitter. (Direct sunshine falsifies the measurement and continuous humidity strains the electronic components needlessly).
• Place the display unit at the final position. Avoid the vicinity of any interfering field like computer monitors or TV sets and solid metal objects.
• Check the transmission of the signal from the transmitter to the display unit (transmission range 100 m free field, within ferroconcrete rooms, especially with metal parts, the received signal is naturally weakened).
• If necessary choose another position for transmitter and/or display unit.
• Use the bracket stand for mounting or standing when the signal is received successfully.

10. Care and maintenance

• Clean the instruments with a soft damp cloth. Do not use solvents or scouring agents.
• Remove the batteries if you do not use the products for a long period of time.
• Keep the instruments in a dry place.

10.1 Battery replacement

• When the batteries are used up, the low battery indicator appears on the display (RX=base station, TX=transmitter).
• Please note: When the batteries are changed, the contact between transmitter and receiver must be restored – so always insert new batteries into both units or start a manual transmitter search.
