Safety Information
- Do not disassemble the product. Unauthorized modifications can void the warranty and cause malfunction.
- If the display becomes blurry or dim, replace the batteries promptly.
- Avoid placing the product in hot, wet, dusty, or corrosive gas environments to prevent damage to electronic components.
- Do not install batteries in reverse polarity.
- Keep the receiver away from large metal objects, which can interfere with wireless signal transmission.
- Do not use rechargeable batteries. Fresh alkaline batteries are recommended for optimal performance, especially in temperatures between -20 °C and 60 °C.
- Ensure remote sensors are not transmitting through solid metal, as this can block the signal.
- Move the display console away from electrical noise-generating devices such as computers, TVs, and other wireless transmitters or receivers to avoid interference.

Main Unit Features:
- Large Backlit LCD Display: Ensures easy viewing in low light conditions.
- Dual-Channel Display: Shows temperatures from two remote sensors and the main unit's indoor temperature.
- Min/Max Record: Tracks the highest and lowest temperatures recorded.
- Audible Alarm: Alerts you when temperatures exceed pre-set limits.
- Temperature Unit Selector: Switch between Celsius (°C) and Fahrenheit (°F).
- Time Display: Option for All Time or 24-hour records.
- Low Battery Indicator: Notifies you when batteries need replacement.
Wireless Sensor Features:
- Wireless Transmission: Sends temperature data to the main unit.
- Compact Design: Easy to place inside refrigerators, freezers, or outdoors.
Setup
1. Battery Installation:
For proper synchronization, install batteries in the sensors first, then in the main unit.
- Transmitters (Wireless Sensors): Open the battery compartment on each sensor. Insert 4 x AAA batteries (not included) into each transmitter, observing polarity (+/-). Close the compartment.
- Main Unit: Open the battery compartment on the back of the main unit. Insert 3 x AAA batteries (not included), observing polarity (+/-). Close the compartment.
The main unit will automatically search for signals from the sensors. Do not touch any buttons until all remote sensors have reported in.
2. Sensor Connection:
If any sensor communication is lost (dashes "--.-" displayed), press and hold the "CH/+" button on the main unit for 3 seconds. The remote search signal icon will be constantly displayed. Once the signal is reacquired, the icon will turn off, and current values will be displayed.
3. Placement Options:
The main unit offers versatile placement:
- Tabletop Stand: Use the integrated stand to place the unit on a desk or counter.
- Wall Mount: Utilize the hang hole on the back to mount it on a wall.
- Magnetic Attachment: The main unit can also be attached to a refrigerator door using its magnetic back.
The wireless sensors are designed to be placed inside refrigerators, freezers, or outdoors. Ensure they are within the maximum transmission distance of 328ft/100m in an open area.

Operating Instructions
1. Temperature Display and Unit Selection:
- The main unit displays the indoor temperature (from its built-in sensor) and the temperatures from the two wireless sensors (Channel 1 and Channel 2).
- To switch between Celsius (°C) and Fahrenheit (°F), locate the °C/°F switch inside the battery compartment of the main unit and slide it to your desired unit.
- To select which channel's temperature is displayed or to cycle through channels, press the "CH/+" button.

2. Min/Max Record:
The thermometer records the minimum and maximum temperatures for each channel. To view these records, press the "MAX/MIN" button. Press again to cycle through the current, maximum, and minimum readings.
3. Setting Temperature Alarms:
You can set minimum and maximum temperature alarms for Channel 1 and Channel 2. If the temperature exceeds the pre-set alarm value for more than 10 minutes, an audible alert will occur, and the alarm value will flash. To silence the alarm, press any button.
- Press and hold the "ALARM" button for 3 seconds. The MAX alarm value will flash.
- Use the "CH/+" or "CLEAR/-" buttons to adjust the MAX alarm value.
- Press the "ALARM" button again to switch to setting the MIN alarm value. The MIN alarm value will flash.
- Use the "CH/+" or "CLEAR/-" buttons to adjust the MIN alarm value.
- Once complete, press the "ALARM" button again to return to normal mode.

Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Dashes (--.-) displayed for sensor temperature. | Lost communication with sensor. | Press and hold the "CH/+" button for 3 seconds on the main unit to re-establish connection. Ensure sensors are within range and not obstructed by solid metal. |
| Inaccurate temperature readings. | Interference from other electronic devices; sensor placed in an unsuitable location. | Move the main unit away from other wireless devices. Ensure sensors are not directly exposed to heat sources or extreme cold that might affect their accuracy. Allow 30 minutes for sensors to stabilize after placement. |
| Alarm sounds frequently or not at all. | Alarm limits set incorrectly; temperature fluctuation. | Review and adjust your MAX/MIN alarm settings as per the "Setting Temperature Alarms" section. Remember the alarm triggers after 10 minutes of exceeding the set value. |
| Display is dim or blank. | Low batteries. | Replace all batteries in the main unit and sensors with fresh alkaline batteries. |
