• Depending on the base location, there is a possiblity that the correct temperature and
humidity can't be displayed.
• Do not place any objects around the base.
• The base should be placed in a well-ventilated area.
• The location should be close to both a phone jack and a continuous power outlet (one which
is not connected to a switch).
• The base and handset should be kept away from sources of electrical noise such as motors,
microwave ovens, and fluorescent lighting.
• The base can be placed on a desk, tabletop, or mounted on a standard wall plate.
Outdoor Weather Sensor
The outdoor weather sensor monitors the outdoor temperature, air pressure, and humidity and sends
the received data to the base. Proper installation of outdoor weather sensors improves the accuracy
of the readings. Excessive heat, wind, and moisture can affect the sensor's readings. Follow the
guidelines below to get the most accurate information from your outdoor weather sensor:
• Do not mount the sensor in direct sunlight. Direct sunlight on the sensor will cause an
artificially high temperature reading.
• Do not mount the sensor where it will be exposed to rain and snow. Moisture on the sensor
may affect the temperature and humidity readings.
• Do not mount the sensor in the draft of an exhaust vent (e.g., from a heater, stove, or dryer).
• Do not mount the sensor above surfaces that radiate a lot of heat (e.g., bare concrete or blacktop). If
you can feel the temperature increase as you cross the surface, you should not put the sensor there.
• Try to avoid mounting the sensor close to plants or trees.
• Mount the sensor in a location where the airflow is representative of the surrounding area. If
the location of the sensor is unusually breezy or unusually still compared to the surrounding
area, the readings may be affected.
• Mount the sensor at least 60 inches above the ground.
• Mount the sensor 24 to 36 inches away from roof eaves, doors, or windows.
• If you are mounting the sensor above plants, the plants should be no higher than 10 inches above the ground.
• If your region gets snow, mounts the sensor at least 24 inches above the average maximum snow level.
• In the US and Canada, the north side of the building is considered the best location due to the angle of the sun.

only one way.) Match the wire colors to the polarity
label in the battery compartment, connect the
battery and listen for a click to insure connection.
3) Make sure you have a good connection by slightly
pulling on the battery wires. If the connection is
secure, the battery jack will remain in place.
4) Place the battery case cover back in the handset by
sliding it upwards until it clicks into place.

humidity appear on
the base display, do
not change the
channel unless you
replace the batteries.

trip hazard or where it
could become chafed
and create a fire or
electrical hazard.

location that could cause a hazard when inserting screws into the
wall.
• Try to mount your phone within 5 feet of a working phone jack to
avoid excessive cord lengths.
• Make sure the wall material is capable of supporting the weight of
the base and handset.
• Use #10 screws (minimum length of 1-3/8 inches) with anchoring
devices suitable for the wall material where the base unit will be
placed.
1) Insert two mounting screws into the wall, (with their appropriate anchoring device), 3-
15/16 inches apart. Allow about 1/8 of an inch between the wall and screw heads for
mounting the phone.
