Placement for Maximum Accuracy

AcuRite sensors are sensitive to surrounding environmental conditions. Proper

placement of both the display unit and the sensor are critical to the accuracy and

performance of this product.

Display Unit Placement

Place the display unit in a dry area free of dirt and dust. To ensure

accurate temperature measurement, place out of direct sunlight and

away from heat sources or vents. Display unit stands upright for

tabletop use.

3-in-1 Sensor Placement

The 3-in-1 sensor is designed to remain outdoors all year long.

Choose an open location with no obstructions above or around the

sensor for the most accurate measurements.

Important Placement Guidelines

Display unit and sensor must be within 330 feet (100 m) of each other.

MAXIMIZE WIRELESS RANGE

Place units away from large metallic items, thick walls, metal surfaces, or other

objects that may limit wireless communication.

PREVENT WIRELESS INTERFERENCE

Place both units at least 3 feet (.9 m) away from electronic devices (TV, computer,

microwave, radio, etc.).

LOCATE AWAY FROM HEAT SOURCES

Position sensor away from heaters, air conditioners, chimneys, exhaust vents, asphalt

and concrete (surfaces that radiate heat).

LOCATE AWAY FROM HUMIDITY SOURCES

Avoid installing the sensor near pools, spas, or other bodies of water. Water sources

may impact humidity accuracy.

LOCATE AWAY FROM SPRINKLER HEADS

DO NOT install the sensor where it will be sprayed by a sprinkler system. This may

force water inside the sensor.

LOCATE AWAY FROM WIND OBSTRUCTIONS

DO NOT mount the sensor with obstructions around it.

Consider a location that is a wide open area, with few

structures around to ensure accurate wind speed measurement.
