batteries to the sensor. Press the TX button and replace
the cover.
Note: The “TX” and the “C/F” are hidden inside the
protective backing to ensure weather resistance of this
unit that is intended for the outdoors.
The remote sensors are not “waterproof” meaning able to
submerse, but rather water resistant or weather resistant.
Prolonged exposure to cold weather may cause damage to
the LCD panel and in addition can drain your batteries.
Extreme heat can cause your batteries to drain and more
importantly, explode and corrode in the compartment.
Battery corrosion will harm the unit.
Although these units are intended for outdoor use, placing
them in a protected area will preserve the life of the unit.

TROUBLESHOOTING:
The main unit may flash the outdoor temp display if outside
interference is occurring. Most of the time the unit will re-sync on
its own, or by bringing the sensor closer to the main unit. However,
if this should continue to occur, the following may also be the
reason:
A. Low battery indicator.
B. The sensor has been placed outside of the effective
transmission range (more than 100 feet).
C. Sensor may have outside interference that is preventing
proper transmission (metal surfaces, electrical devices,
etc). The sensor may need to be moved if interference
continues.
