due to a random security code assigned by the transmitter at start-up. This code must be 
received and stored by the weather station in the first 3 minutes of power being supplied to 
the transmitter. 
 

BATTERY CHANGE: 

It is recommended to replace the batteries in all units on an annual basis to ensure optimum 
accuracy of these units. 

 
Please participate in the preservation of the environment. Return used 
batteries to an authorized depot.

 

 
 

 

SETTING UP 

1. 

First, insert the batteries in the transmitter 

(see “

To install and replace batteries in 

the thermo-hygro transmitter

 

above). 

2. 

Within 2 minutes of powering up the transmitter, insert the batteries in the weather 
station (see “

To install and replace batteries in the weather station

 

above). Once 

the batteries are in place, all segments of the LCD will light up briefly. Following the 
indoor temperature/humidity and the time as 00:00 will be displayed. If this information 
is not displayed on the LCD after 60 seconds, remove the batteries and wait for at least 
60 seconds before reinserting them. Once the indoor data is displayed user may 
proceed to the next step. 

3. 

After the batteries are inserted, the weather station will start receiving data signal from 
the transmitter. The outdoor temperature and humidity data should then be displayed 
on the weather station. If this does not happen after 2 minutes, the batteries will need
