THERMOMETER FUNCTIONS
USING THE LIGHT
Both the main unit and the sub-unit are equipped with their own temperature sensors. Temperature data measured
by the sub-unit is sent by wireless transfer to the main unit. This makes it possible to view both the indoor and
outdoor temperature on the main unit display.
Pressing the SNOOZE/LIGHT button (1) turns on the light and illuminates the display for easy reading in the
dark.
Important!
Temperature Measurements
• Overuse of the light can shorten battery life.
• Both the main unit and the sub-unit take temperature measurements every 16 seconds.
• The temperature display shows “LO” for temperatures below –50°C (–58°F) and “HI” for temperatures above
70°C (158°F).
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
Low Battery Warning
• Though temperature readings are displayed up to 0°C (32°F) and greater than 41°C (105°F), note that such
readings are actually outside the guaranteed temperature range of this clock.

USING THE SUB-UNIT
MAIN UNIT/SUB UNIT COMMUNICATION PRECAUTIONS
Data Transfer from the Sub-unit
Sub Unit Location
• Certain environmental conditions can greatly reduce the communication range.
• Avoid the following locations for the sub-unit.
• Data is transferred from the sub-unit to the main unit every three minutes.
• The sub-unit is able to send data to the main unit up to an unobstructed distance of about 30 meters.
• The data receive status is indicated on the display of the main unit by the icons shown below.
Receive successful
Receive unsuccessful
• If a receive operation is not successful for some reason, the display of the main unit shows dashes (–) in place of
the sub-unit temperature value.
• If you experience problems with data transfer, press the RE-SYNC button (0) to synchronize the two units. If

• Locating the sub-unit near a device that transmits radio signals using the same frequency as this product can
cause communication failure of this product.
• Avoid using multiple products in the same area. Doing so can cause mixing of their signals.
Location
• Place the sub-unit in a location where it will not be exposed to rain, direct sunlight, or other elements.
USING THE WEATHER FORECAST FEATURE
A built in pressure sensor makes it possible to forecast upcoming weather over the next 12 hours based on
changes in barometric pressure. Note that these forecasts are not absolutely accurate, and are intended for
general reference only.
RADIO, EMC AND SAFETY REGULATIONS
This product complies with technical specifications required under EN 301 489-3,EN 300-220-3 and EN 60950.
Weather Forecasts
