Product Features
- Large LCD Color Display: A 4.5-inch high-definition color LCD screen displays real-time temperatures from the main unit and two sensors simultaneously. Three-color differentiation aids in easy reading.
- Smart Alarm Function: Customize alarm thresholds for each sensor. Immediate alerts notify you of unsafe temperatures. A 1-minute delayed alarm prevents false triggers from brief fridge openings.
- High-Accuracy Measurement: Wide measuring range of -40℃~60℃ (-40℉~140℉) with ±1℃ (±1.8℉) precision. Sensors update every 60 seconds.
- Backlight: An exclusive backlight function ensures clear readings in dim environments. On battery power, press to activate for 10 seconds. With USB power, choose between two brightness levels (high/low).
- Dual Power Supply: The main unit operates on 3 AAA batteries (not included) or USB power (USB prioritized). Sensors require 2 AA batteries each.
- Multi-Installation Options: The main unit features a hanging hole, foldable stand, and magnet for versatile placement on walls, countertops, or metal surfaces.
- Min/Max Records: View 24-hour or all-time maximum and minimum temperature history. Long-press to reset records.
- ℃/℉ Switching: One-touch switching between Celsius and Fahrenheit units.

Troubleshooting
- No Display/Unit Not Powering On:
- Check if batteries are installed correctly and are not depleted.
- If using USB power, ensure the cable is securely connected and the power adapter is functional.
- Sensors Not Connecting/Displaying Readings:
- Ensure batteries in sensors are fresh and correctly installed.
- Verify sensors are within the 100-meter signal range of the main unit.
- Avoid placing sensors near large metal objects or sources of strong electromagnetic interference.
- If a sensor consistently reads '7 degrees' or similar fixed value, check for internal connection issues or battery terminal problems.
- Inaccurate Temperature Readings:
- Allow 15-30 minutes for sensors to stabilize after initial placement or significant temperature changes.
- Ensure sensors are not directly exposed to cold air vents or heat sources.
- Alarm Not Sounding:
- Check that alarm thresholds are set correctly.
- Ensure the alarm function is enabled.
- Backlight Not Working:
- If on battery power, press the LIGHT button. It will only stay on for 10 seconds.
- If on USB power, press the LIGHT button to cycle through brightness levels.
