Setup

1. Battery Installation

The main unit and remote sensor require batteries (not included).

• Main Unit: Requires 2 x AAA 1.5V Alkaline batteries.
• Remote Sensor: Requires 2 x AAA 1.5V Alkaline or Lithium batteries.

Open the battery compartment on the back of each device and insert the batteries, ensuring correct polarity (+/-).

2. Unit Selection (°C/°F)

Before installing batteries, or if the device is already working, you can switch between Celsius (°C) and Fahrenheit (°F). The default unit is Celsius.

• Locate the switch button on the top of the main unit.
• Press this button to toggle between °C and °F.
• Note: If the device is already working, you may need to disassemble and re-install the batteries after switching the unit for the change to take effect.

3. Sensor Placement

Place the main unit indoors and the remote sensor outdoors. Ensure the remote sensor is placed in a location protected from direct sunlight and rain for accurate readings and extended lifespan.

The wireless signal penetration is strong, but avoid placing the sensor behind large metal objects or thick walls that could obstruct the signal.

Operating Instructions

1. Reading the Display

The large LCD screen displays both indoor and outdoor temperature and humidity readings. Data refreshes automatically every 60 seconds. Allow approximately 30 minutes for the sensor to stabilize after initial setup.

• Outdoor Temperature: Displays the temperature measured by the remote sensor.
• Outdoor Humidity: Displays the humidity measured by the remote sensor.
• Indoor Temperature: Displays the temperature measured by the main unit.
• Indoor Humidity: Displays the humidity measured by the main unit.

2. Transmission Range

The remote sensor can transmit data up to 100 meters (328 feet) in open air. Actual range may vary depending on obstacles such as walls, floors, and electronic interference.

Maintenance

1. General Care

• Clean the device with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Do not immerse the product in water, as this will cause damage.
• Avoid exposing the device to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, or high humidity for prolonged periods.

2. Battery Replacement

Replace batteries when the display becomes dim or readings become inconsistent. The battery life for the base station is a minimum of 24 months.

• Always replace all batteries in a unit at the same time.
• Use new batteries of the recommended type (AAA 1.5V Alkaline for main unit; AAA 1.5V Alkaline or Lithium for remote sensor).
• Dispose of old batteries responsibly according to local regulations.

Troubleshooting

• No display or dim display: Check battery polarity. Replace batteries if they are low.
• No outdoor readings:
  • Ensure the remote sensor batteries are correctly installed and charged.
  • Verify the remote sensor is within the transmission range (up to 100m/328ft in open air).
  • Relocate the remote sensor or main unit to minimize interference from electronic devices or large metal objects.
  • Try re-pairing the sensor with the main unit (if applicable, though not explicitly mentioned in product description, it's a common troubleshooting step for wireless devices).
• Inaccurate readings:
  • Ensure the remote sensor is not in direct sunlight or exposed to rain.
  • Allow 30 minutes for stabilization after setup or battery replacement.
  • Compare readings with another known accurate thermometer/hygrometer to verify.

Important Note: Never immerse the product in water. Always ensure the Celsius/Fahrenheit unit is set correctly before or immediately after battery installation.
