BEFORE YOU BEGIN
•The remote sensor can be placed indoors or outdoors; the main
unit must be placed indoors.
•We recommend using alkaline batteries for the remote sensor
and main unit when temperatures are above 32°F (0°C). We
recommend using AA lithium batteries for the remote sensor
when temperatures are below 32°F (0°C).
•Avoid using rechargeable batteries. (Rechargeable batteries
cannot maintain correct power requirements).
•Insert batteries before first use, matching the polarity in the
battery compartment.
•ALWAYS install batteries in the remote sensor before the main
unit.
•Press RESET after each battery change with a paper clip or
similar tool.
•During an initial setup, place the main unit as close as possible
to the remote sensor.
•After reception is established (the remote temperature will
appear on the main unit’s display), position the remote sensor
and the main unit within the effective transmission range of 100
feet (30 meters).

NOTE:
1. Avoid pressing any buttons on the main unit before the remote
temperature is displayed for about 2 minutes.
2. The effective operating range may be influenced by the surrounding
building materials and how the receiver and transmitter are positioned.
3. Place the remote sensor so that it faces the main unit (receiver),
minimizing obstructions such as doors, walls, and furniture.
4. Though the remote sensors are weather-resistant, they should be
placed away from direct sunlight, rain or snow.
NOTE: When the temperature falls below freezing, the batteries in
the outdoor remote sensor may have reduced voltage supply and a
shorter effective range. We recommend using lithium batteries at
temperatures of 32°F (0°C) and below.
BATTERY INSTALLATION
REMOTE SENSOR
NOTE: Install the batteries; select the channel and temperature in
C° or F° before mounting the remote sensor.
•Remove the screws from the battery compartment with a small
Phillips screwdriver.
•Set the channel. The switch is located in the battery
compartment. Channel 1 is typically selected if only one remote
sensor is being used.
•Install 2 “AA” size alkaline batteries (not included) matching
the polarities shown in the battery compartment.
•Replace the battery compartment door and secure the screws.
•Secure the remote sensor in the desired location.
10
MAIN UNIT
•Open the battery compartment door.
•Install 2 batteries (UM-3 or “AA” size 1.5V) matching the
polarity as shown in the battery compartment.
•Replace the battery compartment door.
LOW BATTERY WARNING
A low-battery indicator [ ] will appear on the indoor or remote
temperature and humidity reading line of the main unit warning that the
corresponding batteries need replacement.
GETTING STARTED
After batteries are installed; remote sensor will transmit temperature
readings at 45 second intervals. The main unit may take up to two
minutes to receive the initial readings. Upon successful reception,
remote temperature will appear on the larger section of the main unit’s
display (the default remote channel is channel one). The main unit will
automatically update readings at 45-second intervals.
If no signal is received from the remote sensor within two minutes,
dashes [- - -] will be displayed. Press and hold the SEARCH button on
the main unit for two seconds to initiate another signal search.
CHECKING REMOTE AND INDOOR TEMPERATUREAND
HUMIDITY
The default display shows the indoor temperature and humidity
information (temperature is on the top, and humidity is on the bottom
line).The IN icon indicates that the unit is displaying the indoor
readings.

11 11
The remote temperature and humidity for channel one, two and three
can be recalled by pressing CHANNEL button.
The wave icon is located above the remote channel number and
indicates the reception status from the remote sensor.
The following three types of reception status may be displayed:
The unit is in searching mode.
Temperature and humidity readings are securely
registered.
No signals detected. - - -
NOTE: If the indoor or remote temperature and/or humidity goes above
or below operating range stated in specifications, the main unit’s
display will show dashes “- - -”
COMFORT LEVEL INDICATORS
The Wireless Thermo-Hygrometer is capable of detecting and
displaying the present comfort levels for the surrounding environment.
The environmental comfort level is detected, interpreted and displayed
on the main unit’s display based on the combination of the current
indoor and remote temperature and humidity readings. The four
following comfort levels may be shown: ☺(comfort), (wet), (dry)
and No Indicator.

MAXIMUM AND MINIMUM MEMORY
The maximum and minimum record of the indoor and remote
temperature and humidity will be automatically stored in the memory of
the main unit (receiver).
To display the minimum, maximum or the current reading press the
MEMORY button after desired mode (indoor or remote) is selected.
If no button is pressed for the next 15 seconds, the unit will return to the
current temperature and humidity display for applicable mode.
To clear the memory, press and hold the MEMORY button for two
seconds and all previously stored readings will be erased.
AUTO-SCANNING
Press and hold the CHANNEL button for 2 seconds – the icon “3”
will appear on the main unit display above the COMFORT LEVEL
indicator. The indoor temperature and all 3 remote temperatures will be

13 13
displayed one-by-one automatically for 4 seconds each in the following
sequence: Indoor, Channel 1, Channel 2 and Channel 3.
To exit from scanning mode, press and hold the CHANNEL button for
2 seconds, and the icon “3” will disappear, returning the main unit
display to the default display mode.
LOST COMMUNICATION
If the main unit display mode for the remote sensor reading shows
dashes (- - -), press and hold the SEARCH button for 2 seconds to
begin a new signal search (the signal search icon will flash above the
remote channel number).
If the signal isn’t received within two minutes, please make sure that:
•The remote sensor is in its proper location.
•The distance between main unit and remote sensor is not over
100 feet (30meters).
•The path between units is clear of obstacles. Shorten the
distance if necessary.
•Fresh batteries are installed correctly in both remote sensor and
main unit.
•Batteries were inserted into the remote unit first and the main
unit next.
If there is still no communication, please perform the following steps:
•Bring the main unit and remote sensor close together.
•Remove the four (4) small screws from the back of the remote
sensor with a small Phillips screwdriver and open the battery
compartment.
14
•Remove the batteries from the battery compartment and reinstall
them in the same manner. Remote sensor LED indicator will
flash showing transmission of the signal.
•Remove the batteries from the main unit and reinstall them in
the same manner.
•The remote temperature appeared on the main unit’s display will
show that transmission is being received successfully.
TRANSMISSION COLLISION
Signals from other household devices such as wireless doorbells, home
security systems, and entry control may interfere with this product or
cause temporary reception interruption. This is normal and will not
affect the general performance of the product. The transmission and
reception of the temperature readings will resume once the interference
subsides.
PRECAUTIONS
This product is engineered to give you years of satisfactory service if
handled carefully. Here are a few precautions:
•Do not immerse the units in water.
•Do not clean the units with abrasive or corrosive materials.
They may scratch the plastic parts and corrode the electronic
circuits.
•Do not subject the product to excessive force, shock, dust,
temperature, or humidity, which may result in malfunctions,
shorter lifespan, damaged batteries, and damaged parts.
•Do not tamper with the units internal components. Doing so will

15 15
invalidate the warranty and may cause damage. These units
contain no user-serviceable parts.
•Use only fresh batteries. Do not mix new and old batteries.
•Read the user's manual thoroughly before operating the units.
