Installing Batteries

Your thermometer system requires four AA batteries (not supplied) for 
power - two each for the main unit and the remote sensor.  For the best 
performance and longest life, we recommend RadioShack alkaline batteries.

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

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

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

       Install batteries in the remote sensor first, then in the main
       unit to give the main unit time to find the remote sensor's signal.

In the Remote Sensor

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 "Setting/Selecting the Display Channel" and "Changing
    the Degree Format" in Faxback Doc. # 61524.)

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 reinsert and tighten the screws.

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

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

In the Main Unit

1.  Slide the battery compartment cover in the direction of the arrow to
    remove it.

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

3.  Replace the cover.

4.  Place the main unit next to the remote unit.  Then use a pointed
    object (such as a straightened paper clip) to press RESET on the back
    of the unit and initialize the main unit's receiver.

When (crossed battery symbol) appears below a CHANNEL indicator on the 
main unit's display, replace the batteries in the remote sensor for that 
channel.  If it is indoor display, replace the batteries in the main unit.

Mounting the System

You can place the main unit and remote sensor on flat surfaces (such as a 
table or counter top) or mount either on a wall using the supplied bracket 
(for the remote sensor) and screws (not supplied).

Selecting a Location

Choose locations for the main unit and remote sensor that are within about 
328 feet (100 m) of each other.  The main unit should be located indoors, 
but 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.

CAUTIONS: Do not place the main unit or remote sensor where it will be in
          direct sunlight.

          Do not place the main unit in a location where it is likely to
          get wet.  Only the remote sensor is weather resistant.

          Do not place the main unit or remote sensor near electrical
          appliances or heating or air conditioning vents.

Mounting the Main Unit

To set the main unit on a flat surface, pull the built-in stand away from 
the back of the unit.

To mount the main unit on a wall, you need a 1/8 inch (3.5 mm) screw (not 
supplied) with a head that fits into the keyhole slot on the back of the 
main unit.

1.  Drill a hole in the wall at the desired mounting location.

2.  Thread a screw into the wall so the head extends about 1/4 inch from
    the wall.

3.  Position the keyhole slot over the screw and slide the thermometer
    down to secure it.

Mounting the Remote Sensor

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.

To mount the remote sensor on a wall (or on a post outdoors, for example), 
you need two 1/8 inch (3.5 mm) screws (not supplied) with heads that fit 
into the keyhole slots on the back of the supplied mounting bracket.

1.  Drill two holes 1-3/4 inches apart on the mounting surface.  Then
    thread a screw into each hole so 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.
