This allowance is typically enough for a frame wall with non-
metallic siding; however certain materials can reduce range 
even further.  Metal siding, stucco, and some types of glass 
can reduce signal range by as much as ¾ or more, compared 
to the ½ reduction typical of most obstructions.  It is possible to 
receive a signal through these materials, however maximum 
range will be much less due to their tendency to absorb or 
reflect a much larger portion of the sensor’s signal. 

 

Note:

 

When opening the battery cover make sure that the batteries do 
not spring free from the contacts since this will cause start and 
transmission problems. 
 

Battery Change:

 

It is recommended to replace the batteries in the unit 
approximately every 3 years to ensure optimum accuracy.
