Why is no outdoor temperature displayed?

The main unit may not be receiving signals. Press and hold the ▼ button for 2 seconds to force a search. Ensure the remote sensor is within 30 meters and there are no obstructions or interference. Check batteries and replace if low.

How do I set the clock manually?

Press and hold the MODE button for 2 seconds. The year will blink. Use ▲ or ▼ to adjust, then press MODE to confirm and move to month, date, etc. Continue until you exit to clock mode.

How do I set the alarm?

Press ALARM once to display alarm time (if OFF, it is disarmed). Hold ALARM for 2 seconds. The hour blinks; set with ▲/▼ and press ALARM. Then set minutes similarly. Press ALARM to exit. To arm/disarm, press ▲ or ▼ while in alarm display mode.

What is the pre-alarm feature?

The pre-alarm will sound if the outdoor temperature drops to 0°C or below, and can be set to activate 15, 30, 45, 60, or 90 minutes before the set alarm time. It acts as an ice warning.

How do I view the maximum and minimum temperatures?

Press the MEM button once to show maximum readings, and again to show minimum readings. The display will show 'MAX' or 'MIN'. To clear the records, hold MEM for 2 seconds.

How many remote sensors can I connect?

You can connect up to 3 remote sensors. Each must be set to a different channel (1, 2, or 3) using the channel selector in the sensor's battery compartment. Press the CH button on the main unit to cycle through channels.

How can I change the display language?

When setting the clock manually, after setting the date format, you will see the current language (e.g., EN). Press ▲ or ▼ to cycle through available languages: English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Dutch, Swedish. Press MODE to confirm.

What should I do if the clock doesn't receive the radio signal?

The clock attempts to receive the DCF signal automatically after battery installation (within 10 minutes). If it fails, you can set the clock manually. The unit will try to receive the signal every hour. Ensure the main unit is placed away from metal objects and electronic interference.

How to clean the weather station?

Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior. Do not use abrasive or corrosive cleaners, and never immerse the unit in water. Avoid excessive dust, shock, and extreme temperatures.

Before you begin

For best operation,

1. Insert batteries for remote units before doing so for the main unit

2. Place the main unit as close as possible net to the remote unit

3. Position the remote unit and main unit within effective transmission range, which, in usual circumstances, is 20 to 30 meters.

Note that the effective range is vastly affected by the building materials and where the main and remote units are positioned. Try various set-ups for best result. Though the remote units are weather proof, they should be placed away from direct sunlight, rain or snow.

BATTERY INSTALLATION: REMOTE UNIT

1. Remove the screws on the battery compartment.

2. Select the channel

3. Install 2 batteries (UM-3 or AA size 1,5V) strictly according to the polarities shown.

4. Replace the battery compartment door and secure its screws.

BATTERY INSTALLATION: MAIN UNIT

1. Open the battery compartment door

2. Install 2 batteries (UM-3 or AA size 1,5V) strictly according to the polarities shown.

3. Replace the battery compartment door.

LOW Battery warning

When it is time to replace batteries, the respective low-battery indicator will show up on the indoor or outdoor temperature.

HOW TO USE THE TABLE STAND OR WALL MOUNTING

The main unit has a removable table stand, which when connected, can support the unit on a flat surface. Or you can remove the stand and mount the unit on a wall using the recessed screw hole. As for the remote unit, you can place it on a flat surface or mount the unit on a wall using the recessed screw hole.

Getting started

Once batteries are in place for the remote unit, they will start transmitting temperature readings at around 45 seconds intervals. The main unit will also start searching for signals for about two minutes once batteries are installed. Upon successful reception, the outdoors temperatures will be displayed on the top line and the indoors temperature on the bottom line. The main unit will automatically update its readings at about 45 second intervals.

If no signals are received, blanks ***- will be displayed. Hold ▼ for 2 seconds to enforce another search for about 2 minutes. This is useful in synchronizing the transmission and reception of the remote and main units. Repeat this step whenever you find discrepancies between the reading shown on the main unit and that on the remote unit.

How to check remote and indoor temperatures

The indoors temperature is shown on the second line of the display. The outdoors temperature is shown on the top line of the display. The wave display on the outdoors temperature indicates the reception of the remote unit is in good order.

If no readings are received from the remote unit for more than two minutes, blanks **- will be displayed until further readings are successfully searched. Check the remote unit is sound and secure. You can wait for little while or hold ▼ for 2 seconds to enforce an immediate search. If the temperature goes above or below than the temperature measuring range of the main unit or the remote unit (stated in specification), the display will show **..

How to read the kinetic wave display.

The kinetic wave display shows the signal receiving status of the main unit. There are three possible forms:

The unit is in searching mode
Temperature readings are securely registered
No signals.	-∞ °C

MAXIMUM AND MINIMUM TEMPERATURES

The maximum and minimum recorded indoor temperature, outdoor temperatures will be automatically stored in memory. To display them, Press MEM once to display the maximum readings and again the minimum readings. The respective indicators, MAX or MIN will be displayed. To clear the memory, hold down MEM for two seconds. The maximum and minimum readings will be erased. If you press MEM now, the maximum and minimum readings will have the same values as the current ones until different readings are recorded.

Disconnected Signals

If without obvious reasons the displays of the outdoor temperature blank. Hold ▼ for 2 seconds to enforce an immediate search.

If that fails, check;

1. The remote unit is still in place.

2. The batteries of both the remote unit and main unit. Replace as necessary.

Note: When the temperature falls below freezing point, the batteries of outdoor units will freeze, lowering their voltage supply and the effective range.

1. The transmission is within range and path is clear of obstacles and interference. Shorten the distance when necessary.

TRANSMISSIN COLLISION

Signals from other household devices, such as door bells, home security systems and entry controls, may interfere with those of this product and cause temporarily reception failure. This is normal and does not affect the general performance of the product. The transmission and reception of temperature readings will resume once the interference recedes. Different channel may be reduce the interference

HOW TO ET THE RADIO CONTROLLED CLOCK

• After the batteries are installed. The clock will automatically search the radio signal. It takes about 10 minutes to finish this process.
• If the radio signal is received, the date & time will be set automatically with radio control signal icon [@] turn. on.
