with the remcjldiffi
remotetemperaturecannot be received,check:
1. The distanceof the main unitor remoteunitshouldbe at least3-4 feet awayfrom any
interferingsourcessuch as computermonitorsor TV sets.
2. Avoidplacingthe mainunitontoor in the immediateproximityof metalwindowframes.
3. Usingotherelectricalproductssuchas headphones
or speakersoperatingon the same
signalfrequency(433MHz ) may preventcorrectsignaltransmission
and receptron.
4. Neighborsusingelectricaldevicesoperatingon the 433MHzsignalfrequencycan also
causeinterference.
Note:When the 433MHzsignal is receivedconectly,do not re-openthe batterycover of either
the remoteunit or the main unit, as the batteriesmay springfree from the contactsand force a
false reset.Shouldthis happenaccidentallythen reset both units.Othenvisetransmission
problemsmay occur.
The maximumtransmission
rangeis 100 feet fromthe remoteunitto the main unit ( in open
space). However,thisdependson the surrounding

not curvearounda blockingobject.lf no receptionis possible,despitethe observation
of
thesefactors,all unitswill haveto be reset.

Interference
Signalsfrom other householddevices,such as entry controls,door bellsand home security
systems,may temporarilyinterferewith the units and cause receptionfailure.This is normal
and does not affectthe generalperformanceof the product.The transmissionand reception
of temperaturereadingwill resumeonce the interferencehas stopped.

Gare of Your Clock
. Avoid exposingyour clockto extremetemperatures,water or severeshock.
' Avoid contactwith any corrosivematerialssuch as perfume,alcoholor cleaningagents.
' Do not subjectthe clockto excessiveforce, shock,dust,temperatureor humidity.Any of
these conditionsmay shortenthe life of the clock.
' Do not tamperwith any of the internalcomponentsof this clock.This will invalidatethe
waranty and may causedamage.
Gorrect Usage of the Bafteries
. Use 2 AA batteriesand 2 AAA batteries
. Do not mix standardand rechargeablebatteries
. Do not mix new and old batteries
' When the lol batterymark X
appearson the display,replaceall batterieswith new
ones, when the low batterymark Df, appearson the REMOTEtemperaturefield,
replaceall batteriesof remoteunit with new ones.
