Intelli-Time products are pre-programmed with the correct time and date.

SET MODE. Once in SET MODE, the preference you are currently setting will
blink on the display.
To adjust the currently selected (flashing) item, press and release the “ “ or
“ “ buttons (press and HOLD to fast adjust).
To save your adjustments, press and release the “SET” button again to adjust
the next preference. The preference set order is as follows:

not currently Daylight Saving Time.
You will automatically exit SET MODE if no buttons are pressed for 8 seconds.
Enter SET MODE at any time by pressing the “SET” button.
Placement for Maximum Accuracy
AcuRite sensors are sensitive to surrounding environmental conditions. Proper
placement of both the display and outdoor sensor are critical to the accuracy
and performance of this product.
Display Placement
Place the display in a dry area free of dirt and dust. Display stands
upright for tabletop use or is wall-mountable
Outdoor Sensor Placement
Sensor must be placed outside to observe outdoor conditions. Sensor
is water resistant and is designed for general outdoor use, however,
to extend its life place the sensor in an area protected from direct
weather elements.
Hang the sensor using the integrated hang hole or hanger, or by
using string (not included) to hang it from a suitable location, like a
well covered tree branch. The best location is 4 to 8 feet above the
ground with permanent shade and plenty of fresh air to circulate
around the sensor.
Important Placement Guidelines
• To ensure accurate temperature measurement, place units out of direct
sunlight and away from any heat sources or vents.
• Display and outdoor sensor must be within 330 ft (100 m) of each other.
• To maximize wireless range, place units away from large metallic items, thick
walls, metal surfaces, or other objects that may limit wireless communication.
• To prevent wireless interference, place both units at least 3 ft (.9 m) away
from electronic devices (TV, computer, microwave, radio, etc.).
(100 meters)
(330 feet maximum)
Setup is Complete
The sensor will now synchronize with the display. It may take a few minutes for
synchronization to complete. Please refer to the troubleshooting section of this
manual if anything appears to be functioning improperly.
