Radio Thermo / Hygro Station
Item no. 51 59 28
Intended use
The product consists of a base station for displaying the measured data and an outdoor sensor, which wire-
lessly transmits the temperature and air humidity values to the base station by radio.
Base station and outdoor sensor are operated with batteries.
This product complies with the applicable national and European requirements. All names of companies and

Safety Instructions
The warranty will be void in the event of damage caused by failure to observe these safety
instructions. We do not assume any liability for any resulting damage.
We shall not accept liability for damage to property or personal injury caused by incorrect
handling or non-compliance with the safety instructions. In such cases, the warranty will
be null and void.
• The unauthorised conversion and/or modifi cation of the product is not permitted for safety
and approval reasons (CE). Never dismantle the product, 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. It contains small parts,
glass (display) and batteries.
• The base station is only suitable for dry, enclosed indoor areas. Do not expose it to direct
sunlight, strong heat, cold, dampness or wetness; otherwise it may be damaged.
• The outdoor sensor is suitable 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; it can be damaged by impacts, blows, or accidental falls, even
from a low height.
General instructions for batteries and rechargeable batteries
• Batteries/rechargeable batteries must be kept out of the reach of children.
• Check that the polarity is correct when inserting the batteries/rechargeable batteries (pay attention to
plus/+ and minus/-).
• Do not leave batteries/rechargeable batteries lying around; they could be swallowed by children or pets. If
swallowed, consult a doctor immediately, it could be fatal!
• Make sure that batteries/rechargeable batteries are not short-circuited, dismantled or thrown into a fi re.
There is a risk of fi re and explosion!
• Old or fl at batteries can leak liquid chemicals that may damage the device. If not used for a longer period
(e.g., in case of storage), remove the inserted batteries/rechargeable batteries.
• Contact of leaking or damaged batteries/rechargeable batteries with the skin can cause acid burns; there-
fore, use suitable protective gloves.
Liquids leaking from batteries are very chemically aggressive. Objects or surfaces coming into contact with
these liquids might be considerably damaged. Thus, store batteries/rechargeable batteries in a suitable
location.
• Always replace the complete set of batteries/rechargeable batteries. Do not mix batteries/rechargeable
batteries with different charges (fl at and half-discharged batteries/rechargeable batteries).
• Use either batteries or rechargeable batteries; never mix standard batteries with rechargeable batteries.
Use only batteries/rechargeable batteries of the same model and type and from the same manufacturer.

Getting Started
a) Inserting batteries into the base station
• Open the battery compartment on the back of the base station.
• Insert two batteries of type AAA/Micro into the base station, paying attention to the correct polarity (ob-
serve +/Plus and -/Minus). Close the battery compartment again.
• Once the batteries are inserted, the base station briefl y shows all display segments and some beeps
are audible. If only unintelligible symbols appear on the display, press the recessed "RESET" button, for
example using a toothpick.
• Then, the base station starts the search for the radio signal of the outdoor sensor for 3 minutes, and the
reception symbol (at the top centre of the display) fl ashes. Do not press any button and do not move the
base station.
Insert the batteries into the outdoor sensor now; see next section.
b) Inserting batteries into the outdoor sensor
• Open the battery compartment on the back of the outdoor sensor.
• Insert two AAA/Micro batteries into the battery compartment paying attention to the correct polarity (ob-
serve positive/+ and negative/-).
• Once the batteries are inserted, the outside sensor briefl y shows all display segments. If only unintelligible
symbols appear on the display, press the recessed "RESET" button, for example using a toothpick.
• Before you close the battery compartment, you can select the unit of temperature for the display of the
outdoor sensor by pressing the "°C/°F" button.
• With each transmission step of the outdoor sensor, the red LED on the front side of the outdoor sensor
fl ashes briefl y (above the LC display).
The base station should now display the outdoor temperature and air humidity.
• If the base station does not show any measurement value of the outdoor sensor even after 3 minutes,
remove the batteries from the base station and the outdoor sensor and repeat the steps described above.
Alternatively, you can start the sensor search manually, see the "Manual search for the outdoor sensor"
chapter.

It is possible to operate the base station and the outdoor sensor with rechargeable batteries.
However, the operating time and the display contrast are reduced by the lower voltage (battery
= 1.5V, rechargeable battery = 1.2V). Since rechargeable batteries are very sensitive to cold, the
service life of the outdoor sensor is reduced further during winter.
Therefore, we recommend operating both the base station and the outdoor sensor with high-
quality alkaline batteries to ensure long and reliable operation.
