the outdoor LCD. The remote temperature sensor
transmits a new temperature to the temperature alarm
twice every 10 minutes.
V) EL BACKLIGHT
The EL backlight is activated for four seconds after any
button is pressed. It cannot be left on continuously as it
would cause too great of a drain on the battery.
VI) MOUNTING THE REMOTE TEMPERATURE
TRANSMITTER
A) The remote temperature sensor can be mounted
in two ways:
1) With the use of screws.
2) Using the adhesive tape.
B) MOUNTING WITH SCREWS
1) Remove the mounting bracket from the remote
temperature sensor. The bracket should snap off
easily.
2) Place the mounting bracket over the desired location.
Through the three screw holes of the bracket, mark
the mounting surface with a pencil.
3) Where marked, star t the screw holes into the
mounting surface.
4) Screw the mounting bracket onto the mounting
surface. Ensure that the screws are flush with the
bracket.
5) Snap the remote temperature sensor onto the
mounted bracket.
C) MOUNTING WITH ADHESIVE TAPE
1) With a nonabrasive solution, clean and dry the back
of the mounting bracket and the mounting surface to
ensure a secure hold. The mounting surface should
be smooth and flat.
2) Remove the protective strip from one side of the tape.
3) Adhere the tape to the designated area on the back
of the mounting bracket.
4) Remove the protective strip from the other side of the
tape.
5) Position the remote temperature sensor in the desired
location, ensuring that the temperature alarm can
receive the signal.
VII) MAINTENANCE & CARE
•
Extreme temperatures, vibrations, and shock should
be avoided to prevent damage to the units.
• Clean displays and units with a soft, damp cloth. Do
not use solvents or scouring agents-they may mark
and damage the displays and casings.
• Do not submerge in water.
• Immediately remove all low powered batteries to avoid
leakage and damage. Replace with new batteries
only, and of recommended size.
• Opening the casings invalidates the warranty. Do
not try to repair the units. Contact La Crosse
Technology for Repairs.
