SETUP Install or Replace Batteries AcuRite recommends high quality alkaline batteries for the best product performance. Heavy duty or rechargeable batteries are not recommended. The outdoor sensor requires lithium batteries in low temperature conditions. Cold temperatures can cause alkaline batteries to function improperly. Use lithium batteries in the outdoor sensor for temperatures below -4ºF / -20ºC. Outdoor Sensor 1. Slide off the battery compartment cover. 2. Insert 2 x AA batteries into the battery compartment, as shown. Follow the polarity (+/-) diagram in the battery compartment. 3. Replace the battery cover. ··u cp·e1 LITHIUM 4 BATTERIES - ALKALINE BATTERIES I (70°C) 158°F 3 SETUP Display 1. Slide off the battery compartment cover. 2. Insert 2 x AAA batteries into the battery compartment, as shown. Follow the polarity (+/-) diagram in the battery compartment. 3. Replace the battery cover. Select Degrees Fahrenheit or Celsius To select between degrees Fahrenheit (ºF) or Celsius (ºC) temperature units, press the "ºC/ºF" button located inside the battery compartment of the display. PLEASE DISPOSE OF OLD OR DEFECTIVE BATTERIES IN AN ENVIRONMENTALLY SAFE WAY AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH YOUR LOCAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS. BATTERY SAFETY: Clean the battery contacts and also those of the device prior to battery installation. Remove batteries from equipment which is not to be used for an extended period of time. Follow the polarity (+/-) diagram in the battery compartment. Promptly remove dead batteries from the device. Dispose of used batteries properly. Only batteries of the same or equivalent type as recommended are to be used. DO NOT incinerate used batteries. DO NOT dispose of batteries in fire, as batteries may explode or leak. DO NOT mix old and new batteries or types of batteries (alkaline/standard). DO NOT use rechargeable batteries. DO NOT recharge non-rechargeable batteries. DO NOT short-circuit the supply terminals. Placement for Maximum Accuracy AcuRite sensors are sensitive to surrounding environmental conditions. Proper placement of both the display and outdoor sensor are critical to the accuracy and performance of this product. Display Placement Place the display in a dry area free of dirt and dust. Display stands upright for tabletop use or is wall-mountable. l Outdoor Sensor Placement Sensor must be placed outside to observe outdoor conditions. Sensor is water resistant and is designed for general outdoor use, however, to extend its life place the sensor in an area protected from direct weather elements. m1 Hang the sensor using the integrated hang holes or hanger, or by using string (not included) to hang it from a suitable location, like a well covered tree branch. The best location is 4 to 8 feet above the ground with permanent shade and plenty of fresh air to circulate around the sensor. 4 Important Placement Guidelines · To ensure accurate temperature measurement, place units out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources or vents. · Display and outdoor sensor must be within 165 ft (50 m) of each other. · To maximize wireless range, place units away from large metallic items, thick walls, metal surfaces, or other objects that may limit wireless communication. · To prevent wireless interference, place both units at least 3 ft (.9 m) away from electronic devices (TV, computer, microwave, radio, etc.) Setup is Complete (165 feet maximum) (50 meters) The sensor will now synchronize with the display. It may take a few minutes for synchronization to complete. Please refer to the troubleshooting section of this manual if anything appears to be functioning improperly. Troubleshooting Problem No outdoor sensor reception T11n1oIbars Outdoor temperature is flashing or showing dashes Possible Solution If the wireless signal indicator shows no bars: · Relocate the display and/or the outdoor sensor. The units must be within 165 ft (50 m) of each other. · Make sure both units are placed at least 3 feet (.9 m) away from electronics that may interfere with the wireless communication (such as TVs, microwaves, computers, etc). · Use standard alkaline batteries (or lithium batteries in sensor when temperature is below -4ºF/-20ºC). Do not use heavy duty or rechargeable batteries. NOTE: It may take a few minutes for display and sensor to synchronize after batteries are replaced. Flashing of the outdoor temperature is generally an indication of wireless interference. 1. Bring both the sensor and display indoors and remove at least one battery from each. 2. Reinstall the battery in the outdoor sensor. 3. Reinstall the battery in the display. 4. Let the units sit within a couple feet of each other for a few minutes to gain a strong connection. 5 Problem Inaccurate temperature Display screen not working Possible Solution · Make sure both the display and sensor are placed out of direct sunlight and away from any heat sources or vents (see page 4). · Check that the batteries are installed correctly. Batteries may need to be replaced. If your AcuRite product does not operate properly after trying the troubleshooting steps, visit www.AcuRite.com or call (877) 221-1252 for assistance.
