Mount your thermometer
Place the sensor out of direct sunlight and moisture, and
no more than 100 feet (30.5 meters) from the thermometer.
Place it facing the thermometer with few obstructions, and
away from metallic and electronic objects.
On flat surfaces
Place the thermometer indoors and the remote sensor
outdoors. Place them on flat surfaces using their
respective stands (included).
On the wall
1. Select an indoor wall for the thermometer and an
outdoor wall for the remote sensor.
2. Remove the stands from the thermometer and
remote sensor.
3. Drill a hole in the wall.
4. Thread a screw (not supplied) into the hole and let it
extend about vin. (0.48 cm) from the wall.
5. Fit the head of the screw into the keyhole slot.
• Use only fresh batteries of the required size and type.
• Do not mix batteries of different types, capacities, or
chemistry.
• If you do not plan to use the thermometer for a
month or more, remove the battery. Batteries can leak
chemicals that can damage electronic parts.

Care for Your Thermometer
• Keep the thermometer and remote sensor dry. If they get
wet, wipe them dry immediately.
• Use and store the thermometer only in room temperature
environments.
• Handle the thermometer and remote sensor carefully. Do
not drop them.
• Keep the thermometer away from dust and dirt, and wipe
it with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new.
• Never immerse the product in water. This can cause
electrical shock and damage the product.
• Do not subject the thermometer to extreme force, shock,
or fluctuations in temperature or humidity.
• Do not tamper with the internal components.
• Do not scratch the display.
Hints and Tips
• Insert batteries and select the channel before mounting
the sensor.
•LLL or HHH appears when the temperature is out of
range. See Specifications for range information.
• If the temperature on your sensor does not match the
one on your thermometer, press SEARCH to retrieve the
signal again. Place the sensor out of direct sunlight and
moisture.
• Do not place the sensor more than 100 feet (30.5 meters)
from the thermometer.
• Position the sensor facing the thermometer, minimizing
obstructions such as doors, walls, and furniture.
• Place the sensor away from metallic or electronic objects.
• Position the sensor close to the thermometer during cold
winter months, as below-freezing temperatures may affect
battery performance and signal transmission.
• If you still do not receive a signal, check the batteries,
obstructions, and remote unit location.
• Signals from household devices, such as doorbells,
electronic garage doors, and home security systems,
may cause temporary reception failure. This is normal
and does not affect general product performance. The
reception will resume once the interference ends.
• The display in outdoor thermometers remains operational
to -4°F (-20°C) with adequate power. If the unit’s
performance fails due to low temperature, the unit will
resume proper functioning as the temperature rises to
within the normal temperature range.
