QUICK SET-UP GUIDE
Hint: Use good quality Alkaline Batteries and avoid rechargeable batteries.
1. Have the indoor weather station and remote temperature sensor 3 to 5 apart.
2. Batteries should be out of both units for 10 minutes.
3. Place the batteries into the remote temperature sensor first then into the indoor weather station.

(All remote temperature sensors must be started before the indoor
weather station)
4. DO NOT PRESS ANY BUTTONS FOR 10 MINUTES.
In this time the indoor weather station and remote temperature sensor will start to talk to each other and the indoor weather station will show both the indoor temperature and an outdoor temperature. If the indoor weather station does not display both temperatures after the 10 minutes please retry the set up as stated above. After both indoor and outdoor temperatures are displayed for 10 minutes you can place your remote temperature sensor outdoors and set your time.
The remote temperature sensor should be placed in a dry, shaded area. The remote temperature sensor has a range of 80 feet. Any walls that the signal will have to pass through will reduce distance. An outdoor wall or window will have 20 to 30 feet of resistance and an interior wall will have 10 to 20 feet of resistance. Your distance plus resistance should not exceed 80 ft. in a straight line.
NOTE: Fog and mist will not harm your remote temperature sensor but direct rain must be avoided.
To complete the set up of your indoor weather station after the 10 minutes have passed please follow the steps on pages 8 and 9.
The remote temperature sensor transmits a signal every 3 minutes;
Note:
after the batteries have been installed, the indoor weather station will search for the signal for a duration of 5 minutes. If there is no temperature reading in the OUTDOOR LCD after 5 minutes, make sure the units are within range of each other or repeat the battery installation procedure.
