7.13 Positioning and fixing of basic unit and outdoor transmitter
•
With the foldable leg at the back of the unit, the basic station can be
placed onto any flat surface or wall mounted at the respective location by
the hanging hole at the back of the unit. Avoid the vicinity of any interfer-
ing field like computer monitors or TV sets and solid metal objects.
•
Choose a shady and dry position for the transmitter. (Direct sunshine fal-
sifies the measurement and continuous humidity strains the electronic
components needlessly).
•
Check the transmission of the signal from the outdoor transmitter to the
basic unit (transmission range 75 m free field). Within ferro-concrete rooms
(basements, superstructures), the received signal is naturally weakened.
•
If necessary choose another position for the outdoor transmitter and/or
basic unit.
•
If the transmission is successfully, fix the outdoor transmitter by using a
nail (not included) on the wall or place it onto a flat surface.
8. Care and maintenance
•
Clean the instruments with a soft damp cloth. Do not use solvents or
scouring agents.
•
Remove the batteries if you do not use the products for a lengthy period.
•
Keep the instruments in a dry place.
8.1 Battery replacement
•
Replace the batteries when the battery symbol of the basic station
appears next to the time display.
•
When the batteries of the transmitter are used up, the low battery icon
appears next to the outdoor temperature display.
•
Make sure the polarities are correct. Close the covers again.
•
Please note: When the batteries are changed, the contact between trans-
mitter and receiver must be restored – so always insert new batteries into
both units or start a manual transmitter search.
