OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE TRANSMITTER: 

The temperature is measured and transmitted to the radio-controlled clock every 1 minute. The 
radio-controlled clock will update the temperature display every 5 minutes. 
The range of the outdoor temperature transmitter may be affected by the temperature. At cold 
temperatures the transmitting distance may be decreased. Please bear this in mind when 
positioning the transmitter. Also the batteries may be reduced in power during periods of 
extreme cold temperatures. 

 
433MHz RECEPTION CHECK FOR OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE TRANSMITTER 

The radio-controlled clock will receive the temperature data within 4 minutes. If the temperature 
data is not being received 4 minutes after setting up (the display shows “- - -”), then please 
check the following points: 
1. 

The distance of the radio-controlled clock or outdoor temperature transmitter should be at 
least 6 feet (2 meters) away from any interfering sources such as computer monitors or 
TV sets. 

2. 

Avoid placing the receiver onto or in the immediate proximity of metal window frames. 

3. 

Using other electrical products such as headphones or speakers operating on the same 
signal frequency (433MHz) may prevent correct signal transmission and reception. 

4. 

Neighbors using electrical devices operating on the 433MHz signal frequency can also 
cause interference.
