Before First Use

To avoid connection problems, follow these steps:

1. Place the base unit (receiver) and sensor (transmitter) as close as possible.
2. Install the power supply for the base station and wait for the indoor temperature to be displayed.
3. Connect the sensor's power supply.
4. Install/operate the base unit and sensor within effective transmission range.
5. Ensure the base unit and radio sensor are set to the same channel.

When changing batteries, always remove and reinsert them in the correct order for radio connection. If the device is powered by mains, briefly disconnect it when changing batteries. If only sensor batteries are replaced, the signal may not be received correctly.

Actual range depends on building materials and sensor placement. External influences can reduce range. Try different locations or move the units a few centimeters.
