LOW BATTERIES INDICATOR

Low battery icon “ “appear at particular channel indicating that Thermal Sensor Unit of the channel is in low battery status. The batteries should be replaced.

NOTE:

- Use a pin to press the reset button (B12) if the Unit does not work properly.

- Avoid placing the clock near interference sources /metal frames such as computer or TV sets.

- The clock loses its time information when the batteries is removed.

- Buttons will not function while scanning for WWVB time signal or thermo sensor’s signal unless they are well received or stopped manually.

- All Setting Modes will automatically exit in 15 seconds without any adjustment.

NOTE:

Attention! Please dispose of used unit or batteries in an ecologically safe manner.

PLACING THE TRANSMITTER OUTSIDE

The transmitter should be located in an area protected from direct sunlight and rain. Place the sensor under a covered location like a roof overhand or under the eaves. This will ensure accurate temperature readings. The transmitter comes with a wall mounting/desktop holder. When mounting on a wall, screw in place the holder using the top and bottom holes. Then secure the transmitter in the holder. The holder is also equipped with a table stand. With the transmitter secured on the holder, retract the leg on the rear of the holder and place on a flat surface.
