4.3 Sensor Placement
For accurate outdoor temperature readings, place the outdoor sensor in a location that is:
- Shaded: Avoid direct sunlight, which can cause artificially high temperature readings.
- Protected: Shielded from direct rain and snow.
- Well-ventilated: Ensure good airflow around the sensor.
- Within Range: Ensure it is within the wireless transmission range of the main unit (typically up to 30 meters in open air).

4.4 Synchronization
After installing batteries in both units, the main unit will automatically attempt to connect with the outdoor sensor and receive the DCF radio signal for time and date. This process may take a few minutes. Ensure both units are within range of each other during initial setup.
5. Operating Instructions
5.1 Display Information
The main unit's display is divided into several sections:
- Time and Date: Located at the top, synchronized via DCF radio signal. Supports 12/24-hour format.
- Weather Trend: Graphic icons (e.g., sun, clouds, rain) indicate the predicted weather trend based on atmospheric pressure changes.
- Outdoor Temperature: Displayed prominently, labeled 'OUT'.
- Indoor Temperature: Displayed prominently, labeled 'IN'.
5.2 Time and Date Setting
The device automatically sets the time and date via the DCF radio signal. If the signal is not received or you are outside the reception area, you can manually set the time and date using the buttons on the back of the main unit. Refer to the specific button functions for 'MODE', 'SET', and 'UP/DOWN' in the quick start guide or on the device itself.
5.3 Temperature Units
To switch between Celsius (°C) and Fahrenheit (°F), locate the °C/°F button, usually on the back or side of the main unit, and press it. The display will update accordingly.
5.4 Weather Trend Display
The weather trend icons provide a forecast for the next 12-24 hours based on changes in atmospheric pressure. These are predictions and may not always perfectly match actual weather conditions.
6. Maintenance
6.1 Care and Cleaning
Clean the main unit and outdoor sensor with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the surfaces and electronic components. Ensure no moisture enters the battery compartments or other openings.
6.2 Battery Replacement
Replace batteries in both the main unit and outdoor sensor when the low battery indicator appears on the display. Always replace all batteries in a unit at the same time with new ones of the same type. Dispose of used batteries responsibly according to local regulations.
