TROUBLE SHOOTING

Outdoor reading is flashing or showing dashes

| Flashing of the outdoor reading is generally an indication of wireless interference.

1. Bring the sensor and main unit indoors, side by side and remove batteries from each.

2. Make sure the CH 1-2-3 switch on both units match.

3. Reload batteries in outdoor sensor.

4. Reload batteries in main unit.

5. Let both units sit within a couple feet of each other for a few minutes to gain a strong connection before taking sensor to outdoor area.

No outdoor sensor reception

| 1. Reload the batteries of both outdoor sensor and main unit. Please refer to the SENSOR SETUP section.

2. Relocate the main unit and/or the out- door sensor. The units must be within 100m(328ft) of each other.

3. Make sure both units are placed at least

0.9 m (3 ft) away from electronics that may interfere with the wireless communication (such as TVs, microwaves, computers, etc).

4. Use standard alkaline batteries. Do not use heavy duty or rechargeable batteries. NOTE: It may take a few minutes for main unit and sensor to synchronize after batteries are reloaded.

Inaccurate temperature/ humidity| Make sure both the main unit and sensor are placed out of direct sunlight and away from any heat sources or vents.
“HH.H/LL.L” display in indoor and/or outdoor temperature| If the temperature is higher than the detec- tion range, “HH.H” will display on screen for indication; if lower than the detection range, “LL.L” will display on screen for indication.
If your BALDR product does not operate properly after trying the troubleshooting steps, please contact the seller on your order page or shoot an email to: service@baldr.com.
