The remote sensor can be placed indoors or outdoors, the
main unit must be placed indoors.
We recommend using alkaline batteries for the remote
sensor and main unit when temperatures are above 32°F (0°C).
We recommend using AA lithium batteries for the remote
sensor when temperatures are below 32°F (0°C).
Avoid using rechargeable batteries. (Rechargeable batteries
cannot maintain correct power requirements).
Insert batteries before first use, matching the polarity in the
battery compartment.

2. The effective operating range may be influenced by the
surrounding building materials and how the receiver and
transmitter are positioned.
• Flashes once when the remote sensor transmits a reading
to the main unit.
• Flashes twice when battery power is low.
3. Place the remote sensor so that it faces the main unit
(receiver), minimizing obstructions such as doors, walls,
and furniture.
B BATTERY COMPARTMENT
• Holds two AA-size batteries.
4. Though the remote sensors are weather-resistant, they
should be placed away from direct sunlight, rain or snow.
NOTE: When the temperature falls below freezing, the
batteries in the outdoor remote sensors may have reduced
voltage supply and a shorter effective range. We recommend
using lithium batteries at temperature 32°F (0°C) and below.

BATTERY INSTALLATION
CHECKING REMOTE AND INDOOR TEMPERATURES
The remote temperature information line is located on the top
of the main unit’s display.
REMOTE SENSOR
NOTE: Install the batteries; select temperature
unit C° or F° before mounting the remote sensor
1. Remove the screws from the battery compartment with a
small Phillips screwdriver.
The wave icon is located above the remote channel number
and indicates the reception status from the remote sensor.
There are three following types of the reception status that
may be displayed.
2. Install 2 “AA” size alkaline batteries (not included) matching
the polarities shown in the battery compartment.
3. Replace the battery compartment door and secure the screws.
4. Secure remote sensor in the desired location.
MAIN UNIT
The unit is in searching mode.
Temperature readings are
securely registered.
1. Open the battery compartment door.
2. Install 2 batteries (UM-3 or “AA” size 1.5V) matching
the polarity as shown in the battery compartment.
3. Replace the battery compartment door.
˚F
No signals detected.
LOW BATTERY WARNING
The indoor temperature with the icon IN is located below the
remote temperature information line.
A low-battery indicator [
] will appear on the indoor or
remote temperature reading line of the main unit warning that
the corresponding unit batteries need replacement.
NOTE: If the indoor or remote temperature goes above or
below operating range stated in specifications, the main unit’s
display will show dashes [
].
HOW TO USE THE TABLE STAND
The main unit has a removable table stand that supports it on
the flat surface. Attach table stand to the bottom of the main
unit in the slots provided. The unit can also be mounted on the
wall using the recessed screw hole. The table stand must be
removed prior to mounting. The remote sensor can be similarly
mounted or placed on a flat surface.
WWVB RADIO CONTROLLED TIME
The NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology)
radio station (WWVB) is located in Ft. Collins, Colorado. It
transmits an exact time signal continuously throughout the
most of the continental United States at 60 KHz frequency.
The Wireless Thermometer can receive this WWVB signal
through the internal antenna from up to 2,000 miles away.
Due to the nature of the Earth’s ionosphere, reception can be
limited during the daylight hours. The radio controlled clock
will search for an alternate station that receives the atomic time
signal from the NIST Atomic clock in Boulder, Colorado.
The WWVB tower icon on the main unit’s display will flash
indicating a radio signal reception from the WWVB station.
If the tower icon is not fully lit, or if the time and date are not
set automatically, please consider the following:
GETTING STARTED
After batteries are installed; remote sensor will transmit
temperature readings at 45 second intervals.
The main unit may take up to two minutes to receive the initial
readings. Upon successful reception, remote temperature will
appear on the top line of the main unit’s display. The main unit
will automatically update readings at 45-second intervals.
If no signals received from the remote sensor within two
minutes, dashes [
] will be displayed. Press and hold
DOWN ( ) button on the main unit for two seconds to
• During night-time hours, atmospheric disturbances are
typically less severe and radio signal reception may improve.
A single daily reception is sufficient enough to keep the
clock accuracy within 1 second.
initiate another signal search.

• Make sure the main unit is positioned at 8 feet (2 meters)
distance from any interference source such as a TV, computer
monitor, microwave, etc.
4. Fresh batteries are installed correctly in both remote sensor
and main unit.
If there is no reception, please perform the following steps:
1. Bring the main unit and remote sensor close together.
2. Remove four (4) small screws from the back of the remote
sensor with small Phillips screwdriver, and open the
battery compartment.
• Within concrete wall rooms such as basements or office
buildings, the received signal may be weakened. Always
place the unit near the window for better reception.
3. Remove the batteries from the battery compartment and
reinstall them in the same manner. Remote sensor LED
indicator will flash showing transmission of the signal.
4. Remove the batteries from the main unit and reinstall them
in the same manner.
MAXIMUM AND MINIMUM READINGS
The maximum and minimum record of the indoor and remote
temperatures will be automatically stored in the memory of
the main unit (receiver).
To display the minimum, maximum or the current reading
press MEM button.
5. The remote temperature appeared on the main unit’s display
will show that transmission is being received successfully.
If no button is pressed for the next 15 seconds, the unit will
return to the current temperature display.
TRANSMISSION COLLISION
To clear the memory, press and hold MEM button for two
seconds and all previously stored readings will be erased.
Signals from the other household devices such as wireless
doorbells, home security systems, and entry control, may
interfere with this product or cause temporary reception
interruption. This is normal and will not affect the general
performance of the product. The transmission and reception
of the temperature readings will resume once the interference
subsides.
TEMPERATURE TRENDS
The temperature trend indicators located on the indoor and
remote temperature information lines show the trend of
temperatures collected indoors and at particular remote sight.
There are three trends that can be displayed: Rising, Steady,
and Falling.
ATOMIC CLOCK
After the main unit receives information from the remote
sensor, the atomic time signal receiver will start to search
for the time signal. It usually takes between 5-8 minutes.
Once the atomic time signal is received, the date and time
will be set automatically, and the [ ] icon will appear under
the US Time Zone Map icon.
If the time signal has not been received in 8 minutes, press
MODE button to set the time and date manually.
After the unit is set manually, place it by the window for the
better reception. The unit’s atomic clock receiver is
programmed that it will continue to search for the atomic
time signal daily for every hour between 1:00 am and 4:30 am.
Once the time signal has been successfully received, the time
and date will be updated automatically.
LOST COMMUNICATION
If the main unit display line for the remote sensor reading
goes blank, press and hold DOWN ( ) button for 2 seconds
to begin a new signal search. If the signal still isn’t received,
please make sure that:
1. The remote sensor is in its proper location.
2. The distance between main unit and remote sensor is not
over 100 feet (30meters).
CALENDAR AND CLOCK DISPLAY MODES
Date is displayed in month-date format. Each press of the
MODE button will change the clock display setting between
the time of day with seconds and time of day with the day
3. The path between units is clear of obstacles. Shorten the
