terruption of operation and before any maintenance
and cleaning work.

8 / 44
• Place your device so that it can be disconnected from
the power supply at any time. The power outlet should
always be near your appliance and should be easily ac-
cessible, as the plug of the power cord serves as a dis-
connect device from the mains supply.

tial that you observe the following safety information in or-
der to avoid fires.

9 / 44
• Do not expose the device to high temperatures. Use

7 Before commissioning
NOTICE
Avoid connection faults!
In order to avoid connection problems between the devices,
the following points must be observed during commission-
ing.
1. Place the base unit (receiver) and sensor (transmitter)
as close together as possible.
2. Connect the power supply to the base unit and wait un-
til the indoor temperature is displayed.
3. Establish power supply for the sensor.
4. Set up/operate the base unit and sensor within the ef-
fective transmission range.
When changing the batteries, always remove the batteries
from both the base unit and the sensor and reinsert them in
the correct order so that the radio link can be re-estab-
lished. If one of the two devices is operated via a mains
power connection, the power connection must also be
briefly disconnected for this device when the batteries are
changed. If, for example, only the batteries in the sensor
are replaced, the signal may subsequently not be received
at all or not be received correctly.
Note that the actual range depends on the respective con-
struction materials used for the buildings as well as the re-
spective position of the base unit and the outdoor sensor.
External influences (various radio transmitters and other
sources of interference) can greatly reduce the possible
range. In such cases, we recommend finding other locations
for both the base unit and the outdoor sensor. Sometimes
moving the sensor by just a few centimeters is enough!

8 Power supply
NOTICE!The base unit can be operated both with the sup-
plied power adapter or with batteries.
Base unit
1. Press and hold the locking knob on the adapter fixture
of the AC power adapter. At the same time, insert the
desired plug adapter into the adapter fixture and turn
it in as far as it will go in the "LOCK" direction. Release
the locking knob.
2. Insert the DC barrel connector into the DC connection
socket on the base unit.
ATTENTION! Make sure that the plug adapter is firmly
and securely fastened in the adapter fixture of the AC
power adapter before proceeding!
3. Insert the AC power adapter with the previously moun-
ted plug into the power outlet.
4. The device is powered on directly.
5. Wait until indoor temperature is displayed on the base
unit.
6. To replace the plug adapter, hold down the locking
knob and turn the plug adapter in the "OPEN" direction
and remove it from the adapter holder. Then perform
step 1 to mount another plug adapter.
NOTE: Alternatively, operation using batteries (LR03
AAA/LR03) is also possible.
The display goes into sleep mode during battery opera-
tion and can be activated for approx. 15 Seconds by
pressing the snooze button. To do this, proceed as fol-
lows:
7. Remove the battery compartment cover.
8. Insert batteries into the battery compartment. Make
sure that the batteries are correctly aligned (+/- poles).
9. Replace the battery compartment cover.

15 / 44
10. Wait until indoor temperature is displayed on the base
unit.
Wireless sensors
11. Remove the battery compartment cover.
12. Insert batteries into the battery compartment. Make
sure that the battery terminals are correctly aligned (+/-
poles).
13. Replace the battery compartment cover.
9 Battery level indicator
1. When the level of the batteries in the base station or in
the wireless sensor reaches a critical level, the battery
level symbol appears in the appropriate area on the
display.
2. When replacing one set of batteries, always remove the
batteries from the other part of the unit and reinsert
them in the correct order (see chapter "Setting up
power supply"). Replace the batteries to be changed in
the corresponding part of the device with a completely
new set with full capacity. This ensures that the connec-
tion between the devices will be reestablished again
correctly.
10 Automatic time setting
After power supply has been established, the unit automat-
ically searches for the radio signal. It takes approximately 3
to 8 minutes for this process to be completed.
If the radio signal is correctly received, the time is set auto-
matically and the reception symbol is displayed.
If the radio clock signal is not received, press the UP button
for approx. 3 seconds to initiate signal reception.
If still no radio signal is received, the time must be set
manually.
