TROUBLE SHOOTING Indoor and Outdoor temperatures do not match when placed next to each other - Each sensor is manufactured to be +/- 1 degree in accuracy under normal conditions. So it is possible to have up to two degrees difference shown on the separate temperature sensors (one could be "+1 degree" and the other "-1 degree". Additionally, the calibration curve is different between the two units because of the greater temperature range of the outdoor sensor. Errors are usually noted on the extreme ends of the temperature ranges. Base unit is not accepting remote transmissions - The units may not be properly synchronized or the batteries may need to be replaced. See "SETTING UP THE WIRELESS THERMOMETER" section beginning on page 2 of the instructions for detailed instructions. With the two units next to each other, attempt synchronization. Remember to always place the remote sensor within the effective transmission range and away from large metal surfaces. What is the recommended battery type? Your units will come with 4 "AA" alkaline batteries (2 "AA" batteries required for each unit). We recommend using only alkaline batteries for replacements. Where can I mount the remote sensor? To get accurate readings and to prolong the life of your sensor, we recommend that you mount it out of direct sunlight and rain. Fog and mist will not affect the sensor, but large volumes of soaking rain may. To guard against this, we recommend that you mount it under the eve of your house, your garage or any other suitable place that will keep it out of direct sun and rain. Do not mount on a metal surface. 8 SPECIFICATIONS Range of temperature/humidity measurement: Indoor temp.: +32 F to +122 F (-5 C to + 50 C) Remote sensor: -4 F to +140 F (-20 C to +60 C) Channel: max. 3 remote sensors Temp. alert: Indoor Temp and Ch 1 Transmission: max. 100 ft.
