6. Maintenance
- Clean the unit and sensor with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Do not immerse the main unit or sensor in water.
- If the unit will not be used for a long period, remove the batteries to prevent leakage.
- Avoid exposing the unit to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, or excessive moisture.
7. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No display on main unit | Batteries are dead or incorrectly inserted. | Replace batteries with new ones, ensuring correct polarity. |
| Outdoor temperature/humidity not displayed or inaccurate | Sensor out of range, low sensor battery, or interference. | Move sensor closer to the main unit. Replace sensor batteries. Avoid placing near large metal objects or electronics. Re-sync sensor by removing batteries from both units, then reinserting into sensor first, then main unit. |
| Time not synchronizing (DCF) | Weak signal, interference, or incorrect time zone setting. | Place unit near a window, away from electronic devices. Manually initiate DCF reception (long press MEM/-). Ensure correct time zone is set if applicable (though this model seems to be DCF only). |
| "LL" or "HH" displayed for temperature | Temperature is outside the measurable range. | This indicates the temperature is below -9.9°C (LL) or above +50°C (HH). This is normal operation for extreme temperatures. |
