12. Frost indicator
• If the outside temperature is between -2 °C and + 3 °C, the frost symbol appears on the display.
13. Backlight
• To temporarily activate the backlight, press the SNOOZE/LIGHT button.
14. Positioning and mounting of the base station and the transmitter
• When placed outdoors, choose a shady and dry place for the transmitter. Direct sunlight may
trigger incorrect measurement and continuous humidity damages the electronic components
needlessly.
• Place the base station in any room of the house. Make sure to avoid the vicinity of any source of
interference such as computer screens, TV sets or solid metal objects.
• Once the desired location is chosen, check whether the transmission from the transmitter to the
base station is possible (transmission range of up to 60m in open areas). Within solid walls,
especially ones with metal parts, the transmission range can be reduced considerably.
• If necessary choose another position for the transmitter and/or base station.
• Once the transmission is successful, you can wall mount the transmitter or place it onto a flat
surface.
15. Care and maintenance
• Clean the devices with a soft damp cloth. Do not use solvents or scouring agents.
• Remove the batteries from all devices if you do not use the products for a long period of time.
• Store the devices in a dry place.

15.1 Battery replacement

• As soon as the battery symbol will appear on the display of the base station beside the outdoor
temperature or on the display of the outdoor transmitter, change the batteries of the outdoor
transmitter.
• Please note:
When the batteries are changed, the contact between the transmitter and the base station must be
restored – so always insert new batteries into all devices or start a manual transmitter search.
