[. . . ] Avoid direct rain and sunshine DO NOT MIX OLD AND NEW BATTERIES. DO NOT MIX ALKALINE, STANDARD, OR RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES TO INSTALL AND REPLACE BATTERIES IN THE THERMO-HYGRO TRANSMITTER The outdoor thermo-hygro transmitter uses 2 x AAA, IEC LR3, 1. 5V batteries. To install and replace the batteries, please follow the steps below: 1. Insert the batteries, observing the correct polarity (see battery compartment marking). [. . . ] The mode will return to normal time display. 1. Use the + key to set the year (between year 2011-2039). 9 10 Low battery indicator (transmitter) MOON PHASES SYMBOL The moon icon of the weather station will also display all 8-moon phases throughout the year according to the set calendar. A bar segment above the moon phase will indicate current moon phase.

RESET THE MIN/MAX DATA INDOOR TEMPERATURE/HUMIDITY DATA The indoor temperature and humidity data are automatically updated and displayed on the third section of the LCD. Indoor temperature in ºC/ºF Indoor relative humidity in RH% Press and hold MIN/MAX key for 3 seconds to reset all the indoor and outdoor temperature to current temperatures. LOW BATTERY INDICATOR Low battery indicator is displayed on the LCD when the batteries require changing. ABOUT THE THERMO-HYGRO TRANSMITTER The temperature may affect the range of the thermo-hygro transmitter. At cold temperatures the transmitting distance may be decreased. Please bear this in mind when positioning the transmitters. Also the batteries may be reduced in power for the thermo-hygro transmitter. OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE/HUMIDITY DATA The last LCD section shows the outdoor temperature and humidity, and the reception indicator. 11 12 CHECKING FOR 915MHz RECEPTION If the outdoor temperature and humidity data are not being received within two minutes after set up (or outdoor display always shows "- -. -" in the outdoor section of the Weather station during normal operation), please check the following points: 1. The distance of the weather station or transmitters should be at least 5 to 6. 5 feet (1. 5 -2 meters) away from any interfering sources such as computer monitors or TV sets. Avoid placing the transmitters onto or in the immediate proximity of metal window frames. Using other electrical products such as headphones or speakers operating on the 915 MHz-signal frequencies may prevent correct signal transmission or reception. Neighbors using electrical devices operating on the 915MHz-signal frequency can also cause interference. Note: When the 915MHz signal is received correctly, do not re-open the battery cover of either the transmitter or weather station, as the batteries may spring free from the contacts and force a false reset. Should this happen reset all units (see "Set up" above) otherwise transmission problems may occur. The transmission range is around 330 feet (100 meters) from the thermo-hygro transmitter to the weather station (in open space). However, this depends on the surrounding environment and interference levels. If no reception is possible despite the observation of these factors, all system units have to be reset (see "Set up" above). POSITIONING THE WEATHER STATION The weather station provides the option of table standing or wall mounting the unit. Before wall mounting, please check that the outdoor data can be received from the desired locations. Fix a screw (not supplied) into the desired wall, leaving the head extended out by about 5mm. Place the weather station onto the screw, using the hanging hole on the backside. Gently pull the weather station down to lock the screw into place. Foldout table stand: The foldout table stand is located on the backside. Pull the stand out from the bottom center edge of the weather station, below the battery compartment. Once the foldout table stand is extended, place 13 14 the weather station in an appropriate location. CARE AND MAINTENANCE: x POSITIONING THE THERMO-HYGRO TRANSMITTER Before permanently fixing the thermo-hygro to the wall base, pace all units in the desired locations to check that the outdoor temperature and humidity readings are receivable. [. . . ] x Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. x Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. x Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
