High & Low Records
The high and low temperature records are automatically cleared every 24
hours. The high and low records clear each day at the time the batteries were
installed. For example, if the batteries were installed at 6:00pm, then high/low
records will reset at 6:00pm daily.
Troubleshooting
Problem
Possible Solution
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 display unit indoors and
remove at least one battery from each.
2. Reinstall the battery in the outdoor sensor.
3. Reinstall the battery in the display unit.
4. Let the units sit within a couple feet of each other
for about 20 minutes to gain a strong connection.
Relocate the display unit and/or the outdoor sensor.
The units must be within 165 ft (50 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 display unit and sensor
to synchronize after batteries are replaced.
Inaccurate
temperature
Make sure both the display unit and outdoor sensor
are placed out of direct sunlight and away from any
heat sources or vents.
Display screen
not working
