11D. EL BACKLIGHT1. The projection alarm has an EL backlight designed for night viewing.This will light up for 2 seconds whenever a button is pressed.2. The EL backlight cannot be turned on constantly; this would drain thebatteries and burn out the EL.E. INDOOR TEMPERATURE1. The Projection Alarm measures indoor temperature with an internalsensor.2. This temperature is displayed in °F or °C, depending on the timeformat (12 or 24 hour mode). When in 12-hour format, thetemperature will be in °F. When in 24-hour mode, the temperaturewill be in °C.3. The indoor temperature will take time to adjust to the surroundingtemperature as the sensor is inside the case.4. If the remote temperature is placed next to the Projection Alarm,more often than not the temperature will not be exact with oneanother. This is not a defect, but simply reflects the difference inmeasuring methods. The remote temperature is designed forchanging temperature at a wide range.F. REMOTE TEMPERATURE1. The projection alarm comes with a remote temperature sensor.When set up properly, the projection alarm will receive and displaythe remote temperature.2. It is important to power up the sensor first, then the Projection Alarm.If batteries are removed in the remote, the projection alarm MUST bere-set by removing power sources and re-starting.3. The remote temperature is measured within the remote sensor andtransmitted to the projection alarm. If outdoor temperature is desired,simply mount the remote sensor outside. It is recommended tomount the sensor on the north side of the house away from sourcesof heat or cold (away from direct sunlight, windows, vents, etc.).4. The range of the sensor is 80 feet in open space. While the signal isable to penetrate walls, it will decrease the range. Concrete andmetal structures offer the most resistance.5. The sensor should not be mounted on a metal surface.6. The sensor and projection alarm should be kept away from othersources of possible interference including cordless appliances(telephones, baby monitors), microwave ovens, and other strongelectrical appliances.7. The remote temperature is displayed in °F or °C, depending on thetime format (12 or 24-hour mode). When in 12-hour format, thetemperature will be in °F. When in 24-hour mode, the temperature
