We recommend using alkaline batteries for the remote sensor and 
main unit when temperatures are above 32°F (0°C). We recommend 
using lithium batteries for the remote sensor when temperatures are 
below 32°F (0°C). 

·

 

Avoid using rechargeable batteries. (Rechargeable batteries cannot 
maintain correct power requirements). 

·

 

ALWAYS install batteries in the remote sensor before the main unit. 

·

 

Insert batteries before first use, matching the polarity in the battery 
compartment 

·

 

Press RESET after each battery change with a paper clip or similar 
tool. 

·

 

Remove protective plastic screen from LCD display (if any). 

·

 

During an initial setup, place the main unit close to the remote sensor.   

·

 

After reception is established (the remote temperature will appear on 
the main unit’s display), position the remote sensor and the main unit 
within the effective transmission range of 200 feet (60 meters). 

·

 

The remote sensor can be placed indoors or outdoorsdepending 
on the area where the temperature is intended to be measured
. If 
you intend measuring outdoor elements, place remote sensor outdoors 

·

 

The main unit must be placed indoors. 

NOTE:   
1. Avoid pressing any buttons on the main unit before the remote readings 
are displayed.
