directly to “rainy”, although it is possible for the change to occur
quickly. If the symbols do not change then the weather has not
changed, or the change has been slow and gradual.
IV. MOUNTING THE REMOTE TEMPERATURE SENSOR
A. The Remote Temperature Sensor can be mounted in two ways: 1) with
the use of screws, or 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, start the screw holes into the mounting surface.
4. Screw 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. Adhere the
tape to the designated area on the back of the mounting bracket.
Remove the protective strip from the other side of the tape. Position
the Remote Temperature Sensor in the desired location, ensuring
that the Weather Temperature Station can receive the signal.
V. MAINTENANCE & CARE
A. Extreme temperatures, vibrations, and shock should be avoided to
prevent damage to the units.
B. 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.
C. Do not submerge in water.
D. Immediately remove all low powered batteries to avoid leakage and
damage.
