Connect the provided power adapter to the DC 4.5V port on the back of the base station and plug it into a standard power outlet. The display will light up. For backup power during outages, insert 4 x AAA batteries (not included) into the battery compartment on the underside of the base station, ensuring correct polarity.
4.2. Installation af udendørssensoren
The outdoor sensor requires 2 x AAA batteries (not included). Open the battery compartment on the back of the sensor and insert the batteries, observing the correct polarity. Close the compartment securely. Place the outdoor sensor in a sheltered location outdoors, away from direct sunlight and rain, to ensure accurate readings and prolong its lifespan. Ensure it is within 80 meters of the base station and free from major obstructions.
