GETTING STARTED

Connecting the main unit to power supply

Connect the power cable to the Micro USB jack and plug the power 

adaptor into a suitable power outlet.

Inserting batteries into remote thermo sensor

1. Slide  down  the  battery  compartment  cover  to  open,  then  insert  2 

“AAA” batteries, matching the polarity as shown.

2. Press 

 . Slide to replace the battery compartment cover.

NOTE

 The main unit can connect up to 5 sensors. Press and hold + on 

the main unit to search for the remote sensor every time after adding 

a new sensor.

Placement of the main unit 

•  Place the device as far as possible from computers and microwaves 

to avoid any interference.

•  Only use this device indoors in a dry location.

•  Leave space around the device for ventilation purposes.

•  To ensure for good sound quality, do not cover the speaker.  

Placement of the remote thermo sensor

Min 5 ft (1.5 m)

Max 164 ft (50 m)

Place your sensor outside the home at a height of not less than 5 ft  

(1.5 m), shielded from direct sunlight or wet conditions.

•  The 

 icon on the main unit flashes while searching the signal 

from the remote sensor.

NOTE

  The  radio  signal  reaches  up  to  164  ft  (50  m)  depending  on 

conditions of surrounding.

Replacing CR2032 backup battery

This unit is equipped with a CR2032 battery as a backup power source 

to recover the clock and alarm settings when reconnected to mains 

supply.  When  the  main  unit  shows    ,  replace  the  CR2032  backup 

battery.

 

To replace a CR2032 backup battery

1. Open up the bottom left corner of the rubber cover, then gently 

push the arched part of the backup battery door downwards as 

shown above.

2. Replace the CR2032 backup battery to the compartment, then push 

the battery compartment back into the main unit. Connect the main 

unit to the power supply and then press 

 .

NOTE

 When replacing the backup battery, flip the bottom left corner 

rubber cover only. Do not remove the entire rubber cover.

TEMPERATURE SENSITIVE LCD DISPLAY

The LCD display changes colors according to the temperature of the 

first sensor with the lowest channel number available (e.g channel 1). If 

sensor channel 1 is not available, the LCD display will change its color 

according to the temperature of the next sensor channel (e.g. channel 

2) available in ascending order. 
You may also set the LCD display color manually by press and hold 

 , then press   or    to toggle between the desired color number,

RADIO RECEPTION

This  unit  is  designed  to  automatically  synchronize  its  calendar  and 

clock when brought within the range of the radio signal. The main unit is 

able to receive RF clock data in different RCC signals from the sensors 

depend on the region:

Region

Depending  on  the  strength  of  the  signal,  the  connection  process 

takes 2 to 10 minutes. If the signal is weak, it could take up to 24 

hours to receive a valid signal.
