5. Setup

5.1 Battery Installation and Initial Pairing

For successful pairing, ensure the main unit and outdoor sensor are placed close to each other during initial setup. Install batteries in the main unit first, then in the outdoor sensor.

1. Outdoor Sensor Battery Installation:
   Open the battery compartment of the outdoor sensor. Set the channel switch to CH1. Insert 2 new 'AA' batteries, observing polarity. Close the battery compartment.

3. Pairing:
   Allow 2-3 minutes for the main unit to receive the signal from the outdoor sensor. Do not move the units during this time. Once connected, outdoor temperature and humidity will display on the main unit.

5.2 Sensor Placement

The outdoor sensor should be placed in a location that provides accurate readings and is protected from direct weather elements.

• Choose a shaded area to avoid direct sunlight, which can cause inaccurate temperature readings.
• Protect the sensor from direct rain and snow.
• Ensure the sensor is within the transmitting range of the main unit (up to 328ft/100m in open air). Walls and other obstructions can reduce this range.
• Mount the sensor vertically using the integrated hanging hole or place it on a flat surface.

8. Troubleshooting

8.1 No Outdoor Temperature/Humidity Display

• Ensure both the main unit and outdoor sensor have fresh batteries installed correctly.
• Verify the outdoor sensor's channel switch matches the selected channel on the main unit (or is in scan mode).
• Place the outdoor sensor closer to the main unit to check if it's a range issue.
• Avoid placing the units near large metal objects, electronic devices, or thick walls that can interfere with the wireless signal.
• Perform a reset: Remove batteries from both units, wait a few minutes, then reinsert batteries into the main unit first, then the outdoor sensor.

8.2 Inaccurate Readings

• Ensure the outdoor sensor is not in direct sunlight or exposed to heat sources.
• Verify the main unit is not placed near heat-emitting appliances or in direct sunlight indoors.
• Allow both units to stabilize for at least 30 minutes after initial setup or relocation.
