PUTTING INTO OPERATION 2a) PLEASE READ BEFORE USE Please note the following instructions to ensure optimum operation of the appliances: - Place the receiver unit and the transmitter unit within 1 metre of one another. [. . . ] - Then install the receiver unit and the external transmitter unit within the possible range of the appliances, i. e. Please note that the actual range of the transmitters depends on the building materials of the respective building and on the respective position of the external transmitter unit and that the possible distance can be greatly reduced from the 30 metres by external influences (various radio transmitters and other sources of interference). In such cases, we recommend that you seek another position for both the transmitter and the receiver. Sometimes, moving them by just a few centimetres is sufficient!Although the external transmitter units are weatherproof, you should not position them in places where they are exposed to direct sunlight, rain or snow. 2c) PREPARATION OF THE RECEIVER UNIT 1. Open the cover of the battery compartment 2. Insert the 2 batteries (1. 5 V, UM-3 or size `AA') in accordance with the respective polarities. 2d) BATTERY `EMPTY' DISPLAY When it is time to replace the battery with a new one, an indicator [ ] will appear next to the display of the indoor temperature (batteries receiver unit) or outdoor temperature (batteries transmitter unit) respectively. 2e) SETTING THE EXTERNAL SENSOR ­ THERMO/HYGRO a. As soon as the batteries are in the outdoor sensor, the sensor starts to transmit the values measured in intervals of approx. The main appliance also looks for signals (for approx. The pressure is the pressure measured locally; it cannot be set to the sea level. Frost alarm The frost alarm symbol appears on the display when the outdoor temperature falls below 3°C (This is transmitted by the external sensor on channel 1). When the temperature rises above +6°C, the symbol disappears again. 42 4. RADIO CLOCK 4a) NOTES ABOUT THE RECEPTION OF THE TIME SIGNAL The appliance is designed in such a way that the calendar clock is automatically synchronised as soon as it is within the range of the DCF77 signal. To ensure a good reception of the time signal and minimise interference, you should not set up the appliance in the vicinity of metallic objects or electrical appliances. It normally takes around 3 to 5 minutes until the signal is fully received for the first time (depending on the strength of the time signal received). The subsequent hourly synchronisation of the time then only takes a few seconds. If the reception problems persist, please set the clock manually and wait until the next morning. The chances of successful reception are greater in the night (from midnight to around 4 am). One successful reception per week is perfectly sufficient to ensure that the clock runs precisely.
