Care and Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the clock and sensor with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Battery Replacement: Replace batteries in the outdoor sensor and for the clock's backup function annually, or when the display indicates low power or inconsistent readings.
• Storage: If storing the clock for an extended period, remove all batteries to prevent leakage.

Troubleshooting

Clock display is blank:

Ensure the electric adapter is securely plugged into both the clock and a working electrical outlet. Check if the outlet has power. If using battery backup, ensure batteries are fresh and correctly inserted.

Outdoor temperature is not displayed or is inaccurate:

• Check if the outdoor sensor batteries are fresh and correctly inserted.
• Ensure the outdoor sensor is within 100 feet of the main clock unit and free from major obstructions (e.g., thick walls, large metal objects).
• Try repositioning both the clock and the sensor to improve signal reception.
• Allow a few minutes for the sensor to transmit data after battery replacement or repositioning.
• Note that direct sunlight or proximity to heat sources can affect sensor accuracy. Place the sensor in a shaded area.

Time is incorrect:

Re-enter the time and date settings as described in the "Setting Time and Date" section. Ensure the AM/PM indicator is correct. If the clock is losing time, replace the battery backup batteries.

Display is too bright or too dim:

Use the "DIMMER" button on the back of the clock to adjust the brightness to one of the three available levels.
