[. . . ] CHANNEL switch REMOTE SENSOR The sensor collects temperature readings approx. Make sure you use a different channel for each sensor. For best results: · Place the sensor out of direct sunlight and moisture. · Do not place the sensor more than 30 m (100 ft) from the main (indoor) unit. · Position the sensor so that it faces the main (indoor) unit, minimizing obstructions such as doors, walls, and furniture. · Place the sensor in a location with a clear view to the sky, away from metallic or electronic objects. · Position the sensor close to the main unit during cold winter months as below-freezing temperatures may affect battery performance and signal transmission. You may need to experiment with various locations to get the best results. Because of this they will freeze in low temperatures of approximately -12°C (10°F). Disposable Lithium batteries have a much lower threshold for temperature with an estimated freezing range of below -30°C (-22°F). Wireless ranges can be impacted by a variety of factors such as extremely cold temperatures. Extreme cold may temporarily reduce the effective range between the sensor and the base station. 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 (i. e. Secure the sensor in the desired location using the wall mount or table stand. BAR686_M_EU_EN_RUN_R2 5 2006. 6. 21, 11:15 AM EN EN SENSOR DATA TRANSMISSION The sensor reception icon in the remote sensor area shows the status. ICON DESCRIPTION Main unit is searching for the sensor(s) A channel has been found and sensor signal is being received and "- - . (Outdoor Search for the sensor or check temperature area) batteries To search for a sensor: Simultaneously, press and hold MEM and CHANNEL for 2 seconds. NOTE If the sensor is still not found, check the batteries, obstructions, and remote unit location. The clock collects the radio signals whenever it is within 1500 km (932 miles) of a signal. NOTE Slide the EU / UK switch to appropriate position for your location. NOTE Initial reception takes 2-10 minutes for first set up or when RESET is pressed. If the signal is weak, it can take up to 24 hours to get a valid signal. RECEPTION SIGNAL Clock signal reception indicator: STRONG SIGNAL WEAK SIGNAL NO SIGNAL To enable and force a signal search: Press and hold for 2 seconds. To disable the signal reception: Press and hold for 2 seconds. CLOCK CLOCK RECEPTION This product is designed to synchronize its date and time automatically once it is within range of: · DCF-77 generated from Frankfurt, Germany for Central Europe. [. . . ] New Moon Waxing Crescent First Quarter Waxing Gibbous Full Moon Waning Gibbous Last Quarter Waning Crescent ICE WARNING If the channel 1 sensor falls between 3°C to ­2°C (37°F to 28°F), flashes to warn you that the temperature is approaching freezing. NOTE The warning will automatically stop if the temperature goes outside the ice-warning range. HI / LO TEMPERATURE ALARM An alert can be set to sound if the sensor set to channel 1 records above or below a temperature of your choice. 8 BAR686_M_EU_EN_RUN_R2 8 2006. 6. 21, 11:15 AM RESET Press RESET to return the unit to the default settings. NOTE The technical specifications for this product and the contents of the user manual are subject to change without notice. PRECAUTIONS This product is engineered to give you years of satisfactory service if you handle it carefully. Here are a few precautions: · Do not subject the unit to excessive force, shock, dust, temperature or humidity, which may result in malfunction, shorter electronic life span, damaged battery and distorted parts.
