Item no. 1170961
Intended use
The product is used to display the room temperature and the outdoor temperature. The
product consists of a base station for displaying the measured data and an outdoor
sensor, which wirelessly transmits the outdoor temperature values to the base station
by radio.
The base station and outdoor sensor are battery-powered.
Any use other than as described above is not permitted and can damage the product.
In addition, this poses hazards associated with short-circuit, fire, etc. for example. The

Safety Instructions
T he warranty will be void in the event of damage caused by failure to ob-
serve these safety instructions! We assume no liability for any consequen-
tial damage!
W e assume no liability for personal injuries or property damages caused
by improper use or non-compliance with the safety instructions! In such
cases, the warranty will be null and void.
• For safety and approval (CE) reasons, unauthorised conversion and/or
modification of the product are not permitted. Never dismantle the prod-
uct, except for inserting or replacing the batteries as described in this
operating manual.
• Do not use this product in hospitals or medical institutions. Although the
outdoor sensor emits only relatively weak radio signals, these may lead to
the malfunction of life-support systems. The same may also apply to other
areas.
• The product is not a toy and does not belong in the hands of children. Only
use the product out of the reach of children. The product contains small
parts that may be swallowed, glass (display) and batteries.
• The base station is intended for use in dry, enclosed indoor locations only.
Do not expose to direct sunlight, strong heat, cold, humidity or moisture;
otherwise it may be damaged.
• The outdoor sensor is designed for use in protected outdoor areas. It must
not be used in or under water, this will destroy it.
• Do not leave packaging material carelessly lying around, since it could
become a dangerous plaything for children.
• Handle the product with care. The product can be damaged if crushed,
struck or dropped, even from a low height.
• Please contact us or any other professional, should any questions arise
that are not covered by these operating instructions.
Notes on Batteries and Rechargeable Batteries
• Keep single-use/rechargeable batteries out of the reach of children. Do not leave
batteries lying around. There is a danger that children or pets may swallow them,
danger to life! If they are swallowed, consult a doctor immediately.
• Make sure that rechargeable batteries are not opened, short-circuited or thrown
into a fire, as there is a risk of explosion.
• Check that the polarity is correct when inserting the batteries/rechargeable batter-
ies (pay attention to plus/+ and minus/-).
• Chemical liquid may leak out of spent or overly aged batteries, which may damage
the device. Acid contact due to leaking or damaged single/rechargeable batteries
can burn your skin, therefore use suitable protective gloves.
• Do not mix single-use batteries with rechargeable batteries.
• Do not mix single-use/rechargeable batteries with different charge levels (e.g., full
and half-full batteries/rechargeable batteries).
• Replace always the entire set of batteries and never individual cells.
Operating the base station and the outdoor sensor with rechargeable bat-
teries is possible. However, the operating time and the display contrast are
reduced by the lower voltage (battery = 1.5V, rechargeable battery = 1.2V).
Rechargeable batteries are very sensitive to cold, therefore, the service life
of the outdoor sensor decreases further during the winter.
We recommend therefore to operate both, the base station and the outdoor
sensor with high-quality alkaline batteries to ensure long and reliable opera-
tion.

Getting started with the outdoor sensor
• Slide the battery case lid on the back of the outdoor sensor downwards and out.
• Insert two AAA/Micro batteries into the battery compartment paying attention to the
correct polarity (observe positive/+ and negative/-).
• All display segments will appear briefly, followed by a temperature value.
• Press button "°C / °F" located inside the battery compartment to switch between
temperature in °C (degrees Celsius) and temperature in °F (degrees Fahrenheit) on
the outdoor sensor's display.
• Close the battery compartment.
Initial operation of the base station
• Open the base station's battery compartment while tilting up the base (8) and slide
the battery compartment cover (9) downwards and out.
• Insert two AAA/Micro batteries into the battery compartment paying attention to the
correct polarity (observe positive/+ and negative/-).
• Close the battery compartment again.
• Immediately after the batteries are inserted, the base station briefly shows all dis-
play segments. First, the internal temperature reading pops up in the middle row on
the display.
