(630-1031)                 Preparation                Faxback Doc. # 61517

Installing Batteries

Your sensor requires two AA batteries (not supplied) for power.  For the 
best performance and longest life, we recommend RadioShack alkaline 
batteries.

CAUTIONS: Use only fresh batteries of the requires size the recommended
          type.

          Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of batteries
          (standard, alkaline, or rechargeable) or rechargeable batteries
          of different capacities.

Note: If you expect to use the remote sensor in temperatures below -4
      degrees F (-20 degrees C), we recommend you use lithium batteries.

Follow these steps to install batteries.

1.  Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the screws in the battery
    compartment cover, then lift off the cover.

2.  Set CHANNEL and C/F degrees inside the compartment to the desired
    settings.  (See "Changing the Display Channel" and "Changing the
    Degree Format" in Faxback Doc. # 61518.)

3.  Place the batteries in the compartment as indicated by the polarity
    symbols (+ and -) marked inside.

4.  Use a pointed object (such as a straightened paper clip) to press
    RESET and initialize the sensor's transmitter.

5.  Replace the cover and secure it with its screws.

When (crossed battery symbol) appears (on either the sensor or under the 
sensor's channel number on the main unit) or the sensor stops operating 
properly, replace the batteries.

WARNING: Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly.  Do not burn or
         bury them.

CAUTION: If you do not plan to use the sensor for a week or longer, remove
         the batteries.  Batteries can leak chemicals that can destroy
         electronic parts.

Mounting the Sensor

You can place the remote sensor on a flat surface, or mount it on the wall 
using screws (now supplied) and the supplied bracket.

Selecting a Location

Choose a location for the remote sensor that is within about 328 feet (100 
m) of the main unit.  The remote sensor can be placed either indoors or 
out.

The construction of your home or office might affect the transmission 
range between the main unit and the remote sensor.  If you have a choice 
of several locations, try each to see which provides the best performance.

CAUTION: Do not place the remote sensor where it will be:

           In direct sunlight.

           In water (it is weather-resistant, not water proof).

           Near electrical appliances or heating or air conditioning
           vents.

Using the Stand

To set the remote sensor on a flat surface, insert the ends of the 
supplied wire stand into the holes on the back of the remote sensor.

On a Wall

1.  Drill two holes 1-3/4 inches apart.  Then thread a screw into each
    hole, letting the heads extend about 1/4 inch from the mounting
    surface.

2.  Align the keyhole slots on the mounting bracket with the screws and
    slide the bracket downward to secure it.

3.  Slide the remote sensor into the mounting bracket.
