This Weather Station was designed for easy set up. For best operation, the following steps are
required to be done in the proper sequence.
1. FIRST INSERT BATTERIES IN THE MAIN UNIT, THEN IN TRANSMITTER
2. MAIN UNIT CANNOT BE SET MANUALY UNTIL THE WIRELESS TRANSMITTER REGISTRATION
PROCEDURE HAS BEEN COMPLETED.
3. POSITION THE REMOTE UNIT AND MAIN UNIT WITHIN EFFECTIVE TRANSMISSION RANGE, WHICH, IN
USUAL CIRCUMSTANCES, IS 75 METERS.
Although the remote unit is weather resistant, it should be placed away from direct sunlight, rain or
snow.
