• Abra a tapa do compartimento das baterías na parte traseira do sensor exterior.
• Insert the required AAA Micro LR03 batteries, observing the correct polarity (+/-).
• Pecha a tapa do compartimento da batería.
• Importante: For optimal performance and battery life, use alkaline batteries.

2.2. Initial Power-On and Sensor Pairing

After installing batteries in both the main unit and the outdoor sensor, the main unit will automatically begin searching for the radio-controlled time signal and the outdoor sensor signal.

1. Place the outdoor sensor near the main unit during initial setup to facilitate pairing.
2. The main unit's display will show a flashing radio tower icon (for DCF signal) and a flashing RF symbol (for sensor signal).
3. Once the signals are received, the time will set automatically, and outdoor temperature/humidity will appear on the display. This process may take several minutes.
4. If the outdoor sensor does not connect, press the "CHANNEL" button on the main unit to manually search for the sensor. Ensure the sensor is within range and its batteries are correctly installed.

2.3. Placement of Outdoor Sensor

For accurate outdoor readings, proper placement of the sensor is crucial.

Image 2.2: Outdoor Sensor Placement. The image shows the outdoor sensor mounted on a brick wall, indicating a suitable location away from direct sunlight and rain.

• Choose a shaded location, away from direct sunlight, to prevent inaccurate temperature readings.
• Protect the sensor from direct rain and snow. While the sensor is designed for outdoor use, prolonged exposure to harsh weather can affect its lifespan and accuracy. Consider placing it under an eave or in a protective enclosure.
• Ensure the sensor is within the effective transmission range of the main unit (typically up to 30 meters in open air, less with obstacles).
• Avoid placing the sensor near large metal objects or electrical appliances that could interfere with the radio signal.

2.4. Time Zone and Manual Time Setting

If you are in a region where the DCF-77 signal is not available or if you need to adjust for a different time zone, you can manually set the time and time zone offset.

1. Press and hold the "MODE" button to enter time setting mode.
2. Use the "UP" or "DOWN" buttons to adjust the flashing value (e.g., time zone offset, hour, minute).
3. Press "MODE" again to confirm the setting and move to the next parameter.
4. The time zone offset can be set from -12 to +12 hours.
5. To manually disable the DCF-77 reception, refer to the detailed instructions in the full manual (not provided here).
