Getting Started

Measuring station

• Open the battery compartment (13) and insert two AAA batteries with the correct polarity. Close the battery compartment.
  Note
  Before use, ensure you insert the batteries in the measuring station first and then in the base station.

Base station

• Open the battery compartment (10) and insert two AAA batteries with the correct polarity. Close the battery compartment.

Installation

Note –Installation

• We recommend initially placing the base and measuring stations in the intended locations without installing them and making all the settings described in 6.
  Operating –todo

• Only install the stations once the appropriate settings have been made and a stable wireless connection is established between the stations.

• Do not mount the product above locations where persons might linger.

Note

• The wireless transmission range between the measuring and base stations is up to 30 min open spaces.
• Before installation, ensurethat wireless transmission will not be disrupted by interference or obstacles like buildings, trees, vehicles, high-voltage lines, etc.
• Before the final installation, ensurethat there is sufficient reception between the intended installation locations.
•  When installing the measuring station, ensurethat it is protected from direct sunlight and rain.
• The international standard height for measuring air temperatureis1.25 m(4 ft) above ground.

Warning

• Buy special or suitable installation material from a specialized dealer for wall-mounting.
• Ensure that no faulty or damaged parts are installed.
• Never apply force during installation. This could damage the product.
• Before installation, ensure that the chosen wall is suitable for the weight to be installation, and make sure that there are no electrical wires, water, gas, or other lines at the installation site on the wall.

Base station

• Use the base to position the base station on a level surface.

Measuring station

• You can also position the measuring station on a level outdoor surface.
• We recommend installing the measuring station securely on an outdoor wall using the opening (12). Install an anchor, screw, nail, etc. in the wall of your choice.
• Hang up the base/measuring station using the opening intended for this purpose.

Operation

Note –Input
Hold down the button (7) or the button (9) to select values faster.

Connection to the measuring station

• After you insert the batteries, the base station automatically searches for a connection to the measuring station and performs the initial setup.

Note

• Initial setup takes approx. 3minutes.
• Do not press any buttons during setup. Otherwise, values may not be transmitted correctly and there is a risk of value errors and inaccuracies.
• The setup process is completed when the indoor (3) and outdoor (1) measurement data are displayed.
• If the base station still does not receive a signal from the measuring station, press and hold the button (7) for approx. 3seconds to start the manual search for the signal.

Basic and manual settings
Automatic setting using the DCF signal

• After the base station is switched on for the first time and successful transmission is established between the base station and the measuring station, the clock will automatically search for a DCF signal. During the search, the wireless symbol (6) will flash.
  Display| Searching for the DCF signal
  ---|---
  Flashing| Active
  Displayed continuously| Successful –signal is being received
  No display| Deactivated
• If the station still does not receive a signal, press and hold the button (9) for approx. 3seconds to start the manual search for the DCF signal. The wireless symbol (6) will start to flash.

Note –Time settings

• The search process takes about 7minutes. If the search fails, it ends and is repeated at the next clock hour. The wireless symbol (6) will go out.
• In the meantime you can, however, set the time and the date manually.
• The clock automatically continues to search for the DCF signal on daily basis (between 1:00 a.m. and 3:00 a.m.). If the signal is received successfully, the manually-set time and date are overwritten.

Note –Summertime

• The clock automatically switches to summertime. S appears on the display as long as summertime is activated.
• Press and hold the button (9) again for approx. 3seconds to stop the manual search.

Manually setting the date/time

• Press and hold the button (9) for approx. 3seconds to stop the search for the DCF signal. The wireless symbol (6) goes out and you can set the time manually.
• Press and hold the MODE button (8) for approx. 3seconds to start manually setting the date/time.
• Set the following information in the order listed:
• Time zone (difference in hours), hour, minute.
• To select individual values, press the button (7) or the button (9) and confirm each selection by pressing the MODE button (8).
• If you do not make an entry for 20 seconds, you automatically exit setup mode.

Note –Time zone

• The DCF signal can be received over long distances, but always transmits the current Central European Time in Germany. Make sure you account for the time difference in countries with another time zone.
• If you are in Moscow, the time is 3hours later than in Germany. This means that you should set +3 for the time zone. The clock then automatically sets the time to 3hours after the DCF signal is received or relative to the manually set time.

Celsius/Fahrenheit

• Press the button (9) to switch between °C and °F for the temperaturedisplay.

12/24 hour format

• Press the button (7) to switch the time between the 12 and 24 hour format.

Low battery capacity
As soon as the battery symbol (2) appears on the display of the base station, the capacity of the batteries in the measuring station is very low. Replace the batteries immediately.

Note –Replacing the batteries

• Note that the stations have to be resynchronized each time after you change the batteries in the measuring or base station.
• To do this, remove the batteries from the other station and then reinsert them, or change them as required.

Care and Maintenance

Only clean this product with a slightly damp, lint-free cloth and do not use aggressive cleaning agents.
