Troubleshooting
No outdoor sensor
reception
no bars
If the wireless signal indicator shows no bars:
• Relocate the clock and/or the outdoor sensor. The units
must be within 330 ft (100 m) of each other.
• Make sure both units are placed at least 3 feet
(.9 m) away from electronics that may interfere with
the wireless communication (such as TVs, microwaves,
computers, etc).
• Use standard alkaline batteries (or lithium batteries
in sensor when temperature is below -4ºF/-20ºC). Do
not use heavy duty or rechargeable batteries. NOTE:
It may take up to 20 minutes for clock and sensor to
synchronize after batteries are replaced.
Clock is too dark, hard
to read or doesn’t
work
• Verify power adapter is plugged in.
• Check that the batteries are installed correctly. Batteries
may need to be replaced.
• Increase brightness using
“

/
“
”
buttons, located
on the back of the clock.
• The optimum viewing angle for this product is from
slightly above it.
Inaccurate
temperature
• Make sure both the clock and sensor are placed out of
direct sunlight and away from any heat sources or vents
(see page 7).
Outdoor
temperature
is flashing or
showing dashes
Flashing of the outdoor temperature is generally an
indication of wireless interference.
1. Bring both the sensor and clock indoors, side by side
and remove batteries from each.
2. Make sure the A-B-C switch on both units match.
3. Reinstall batteries in outdoor sensor.
4. Reinstall batteries in clock.
5. Let the units sit within a couple feet of each other for
about 20 minutes to gain a strong connection.
