When the low battery indicator appears on the display console, replace the batteries in both the console and the sensor with fresh AAA batteries. Ensure proper polarity and securely close all battery compartments to maintain waterproofing for the sensor.

6.3 Storage

If storing the thermometer for an extended period, remove all batteries from both the console and the sensor to prevent leakage and damage.

7. Troubleshooting

• No Temperature Reading on Console:
  • Check if batteries are correctly installed and have sufficient power in both the console and sensor.
  • Ensure the sensor and console are within effective transmission range.
  • Try re-pairing the devices by holding the 'CH' button on the console.
• Inaccurate Temperature Reading:
  • Ensure the sensor is fully submerged in the water and not touching the sides or bottom of the pool/spa.
  • Verify that the sensor's battery compartment is securely sealed to prevent water ingress.
  • Compare with another reliable thermometer to check for significant discrepancies.
• Weak Signal/Intermittent Connection:
  • Reduce the distance between the sensor and the console.
  • Remove any large metal objects or electronic devices that might interfere with the wireless signal.
  • Ensure the console is not placed in an area with heavy radio frequency interference.
