- Battery Replacement: Replace batteries in the receiver when the sound becomes weak or the LED indicator no longer flashes. For the transmitter, replace the battery if it stops sending signals.
- Weather Protection: While the transmitter is IP65 weatherproof, avoid prolonged submersion in water or exposure to extreme temperatures outside its operating range (-20°C to 60°C / -4°F to 140°F).
- Signal Interference: If you experience signal issues, ensure the distance between the transmitter and receiver is within the specified range and there are no major obstructions (e.g., thick concrete walls, large metal objects) that could interfere with the wireless signal.
