NOTE
INSTALLATION
Mount the remote unit on a flat surface using the
recess holes on the back of the unit.
For best results:
• Insert the batteries and select the measurement
unit and channel number first.
• Place the unit out of direct sunlight and
moisture.
• Do not place the remote unit more than
50 meters (164 feet) from the main (indoor)
unit.
• Position the unit so that it faces the main
(indoor) unit. Minimize obstructions such as
doors, walls, and furniture.
• To maximize radio frequency reception for the
radio-controlled clock, place the remote unit in a
location with a clear view to the sky.
You may need to experiment with various locations to
get the best reception.

date and time with official time-keeping organizations
in Frankfurt (Germany) and Rugby (England). When
the unit is within 1500 km (932 miles) of a RF signal,
the reception icon will blink during reception.
