Cleaning and maintenance
•
Do not immerse the appliance in water or other liquids. If it is gets wet, wipe it off
immediately, as liquids contain minerals that can make the electronic parts corrode.
This is valid for the transmitter as well for the receiver.
•
If the appliance gets dirty, clean it with a damp cloth and dry it with a dry cloth.
•
Do not position the transmitter at places where it could be exposed to rain or
direct sunlight. The transmitter is constructed to comply with the leakage rate
IP33, which means that it is protected against water falling as rain in an angle up
to 60º from a vertical plane. This means that it will work in Danish weather, but,
in case of periods with heavy downpour, you should check that the transmitter
is not constantly wet. Do not expose the transmitter to direct sunlight, as this
will influence the measurements. The transmitter is made of a material that
can resist extreme light conditions under normal temperature conditions, but a
slight discolouring of the transmitter can occur over time due to various airborne
particles and UV light.
•
Do not expose the appliance to rough treatment, dust, extreme temperature
fluctuations or air humidity which might affect the optimum functioning of the
thermometer.
•
Only use new batteries of the correct size. We recommend Alkaline batteries. Used
batteries shall always be removed, as they can leak chemicals that might damage
the electronic circuit of the thermometer.
•
Do not use rechargeable batteries for the transmitter.
•
If you install the appliance in buildings of concrete and steel, this might influence
the reception, as it may be difficult for the receiver to catch the sound signal from
the transmitter. In such case, reposition the receiver and the transmitter to find the
optimum position of both units.
Note!
The present product complies with the requirements relating to teleterminal equipment
(RTTE) and with current CE-marked regulations as to radio waves. In particular cases
other electronic equipment (such as alarm systems, doorbells, computers and similar)
may interfere with the transmitter/receiver. This does not mean that the product is
defective.
IMPORTANT!
The transmitter of the wireless indoor/outdoor thermometer works down to -20°C.
At even lower temperatures it may be difficult for the receiver to catch signals with
temperature measurements from the transmitter, since the transmission range is
reduced at very low temperatures. When the temperature rises again, the batteries will
usually function perfectly again. If the batteries are old, they should be changed after a
period of low temperatures to ensure the optimum function of the transmitter.
Environmental considerations and disposal of batteries
When substituting batteries it is essential to take the environment into
consideration. Used batteries must never be disposed of with domestic garbage.
Batteries marked with the icon indicating separate waste collection must be
returned to one of the authorized collection points. Batteries must be removed
from the appliance before it is disposed of. Also take care that the batteries have
