B)
MOUNTING WITH SCREWS
1)
Remove the mounting bracket from the Remote Temperature Transmitter.
The bracket should snap off easily.
2)
Place the mounting bracket over the desired location. Through the three
screw holes of the bracket, mark the mounting surface with a pencil.
3)
Where marked, start the screw holes into the mounting surface.
4)
Screw mounting bracket onto the mounting surface. Ensure that the screws
are flush with the bracket.
5)
Snap the Remote Temperature Transmitter onto the mounted bracket.
C)
MOUNTING WITH ADHESIVE TAPE
1)
With a nonabrasive solution, clean and dry the back of the mounting bracket
and the mounting surface to ensure a secure hold. The mounting surface
should be smooth and flat.
2)
Remove the protective strip from one side of the tape. Adhere the tape to
the designated area on the back of the mounting bracket. Remove the
protective strip from the other side of the tape. Position the Remote
Temperature Transmitter in the desired location, ensuring that the Weather
Temperature Station can receive the signal.

MAINTENANCE & CARE
Extreme temperatures, vibrations, and shock should be avoided to prevent
damage to the units.
Clean displays and units with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use solvents or
scouring agents—they may mark and damage the displays and casings.
Do not submerge in water.
Immediately remove all low powered batteries to avoid leakage and damage.
Replace with new batteries only, and of recommended size.
Opening the casings invalidates the warranty. Do not try to repair the units.
Contact La Crosse Technology for Repairs.
