[. . . ] · Do not place the sensor more than 30 m (100 ft) from the main (indoor) unit. · Position the sensor so that it faces the main (indoor) unit, minimizing obstructions such as doors, walls, and furniture. · Place the sensor in a location with a clear view to the sky, away from metallic or electronic objects. · Position the sensor close to the main unit during cold winter months as below-freezing temperatures may affect battery performance and signal transmission. The transmission range may vary depending on many factors. You may need to experiment with various locations to get the best results. Standard Alkaline batteries contain significant amounts of water. Because of this they will freeze in low temperatures of approximately -12°C (10°F). Disposable Lithium batteries have a much lower threshold for temperature with an estimated freezing range of below -30°C (-22°F). Wireless ranges can be impacted by a variety of factors such as extremely cold temperatures. Extreme cold may temporarily reduce the effective range between the sensor and the base station. If the unit's performance fails due to low temperature, the unit will resume proper functioning as the temperature rises to within the normal temperature range (i. e. no permanent damage will occur to the unit due to low temperatures). Secure the sensor in the desired location using the wall mount or table stand. BAR686_M_EU_EN_RUN_R2 5 2006. 6. 21, 11:15 AM EN EN SENSOR DATA TRANSMISSION The sensor reception icon in the remote sensor area shows the status. ICON DESCRIPTION Main unit is searching for the sensor(s) A channel has been found and sensor signal is being received and "- - . (Outdoor Search for the sensor or check temperature area) batteries To search for a sensor: Simultaneously, press and hold MEM and CHANNEL for 2 seconds. NOTE If the sensor is still not found, check the batteries, obstructions, and remote unit location. The clock collects the radio signals whenever it is within 1500 km (932 miles) of a signal. NOTE Slide the EU / UK switch to appropriate position for your location. NOTE Initial reception takes 2-10 minutes for first set up or when RESET is pressed. Once complete, the reception icon will stop blinking. If the signal is weak, it can take up to 24 hours to get a valid signal. RECEPTION SIGNAL Clock signal reception indicator: STRONG SIGNAL WEAK SIGNAL NO SIGNAL To enable and force a signal search: Press and hold for 2 seconds. To disable the signal reception: Press and hold for 2 seconds. CLOCK CLOCK RECEPTION This product is designed to synchronize its date and time automatically once it is within range of: · DCF-77 generated from Frankfurt, Germany for Central Europe. [. . . ] If you spill liquid over it, dry it immediately with a soft, lint-free cloth. · Do not clean the unit with abrasive or corrosive materials. · Do not tamper with the unit's internal components. Doing so will invalidate the warranty on the unit and may cause unnecessary damage. [. . . ]
