INSTALLING BATTERIES  
Your thermometer requires two AAA bat-  
teries (not supplied) for power. For the  
best performance and longest life, we  
recommend RadioShack alkaline batter-  
ies.  
Cautions:  
• Use only fresh batteries of the  
required size and recommended  
type.  
• Do not mix old and new batteries,  
different types of batteries (standard,  
alkaline, or rechargeable), or  
rechargeable batteries of different  
capacities.

Warning: Dispose of old batteries  
promptly and properly. Do not burn or  
bury them.  
Caution: If you do not plan to use the  
thermometer for a month or more, re-  
move the batteries. Batteries can leak  
chemicals that can destroy electronic  
parts.

Note: If the thermometer does not oper-  
ate after you install the batteries, simply  
remove and re-install them.  
MOUNTING  
You can place the thermometer on a flat  
surface, or mount it on the wall using the  
supplied screw. For measuring the out-  
side temperature, the thermometer’s sen-  
sor cord extends up to 9.8 feet (3  
meters). You can easily mount the sensor  
to a flat surface on an outside location  
(such as a window) by using the supplied  
suction cup.  
Selecting a Location  
Choose a location indoors near a window  
through which you can route the remote  
sensor cord outside.

Cautions:  
• Do not place the thermometer or  
remote sensor where they will be in  
direct sunlight.  
• Keep the thermometer and sensor  
away from hot or cold sources such  
as stoves, heating and air condition-  
ing vents, and radiators.  
• Do not place the thermometer in  
water or in a location where it is likely  
to get wet. Only the remote sensor  
and its cord are water resistant.  
• Avoid placing the sensor’s cord  
where it could be pinched or cut.
