Note: In order to get an accurate reading and to prolong the life of your
sensor we recommend that you have it in a sheltered area out of the sun
and direct rain. Fog and Mist will not affect the sensor, but a soaking in
23
water may. You can mount it outside under an eve of your house or any other suitable place
that will keep it out of the sun and rain. Do not wrap the sensor in plastic or seal it in a plastic
bag as these can cause condensation problems and substantially reduced accuracy. Please
note a sensor in the Sun will provide inaccurate temperature readings.
Before permanently fixing the transmitter wall base, place all units in the desired locations to
check that the outdoor temperature reading is receivable. In event that the signal is not
received, relocate the transmitter(s) or move them slightly as this may help the signal reception.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE:
Extreme temperatures, vibration and shock should be avoided as these may cause
damage to the unit and give inaccurate forecasts and readings.
When cleaning the display and casings, use a soft damp cloth only. Do not use solvents
or scouring agents as they may mark the LCD and casings.
Do not submerge the unit in water.
Immediately remove all low powered batteries to avoid leakage and damage. Replace
only with new batteries of the recommended type.

Do not make any repair attempts to the unit. Return them to their original point of
purchase for repair by a qualified engineer. Opening and tampering with the unit may
invalidate their guarantee.
Do not expose the units to extreme and sudden temperature changes, this may lead to
rapid changes in forecasts and readings and thereby reduce their accuracy.
