5.6 Temperature probe

• The silver pin is the temperature probe. Please take care of it and do not break it. The tem-
perature probe has no adjusting function. It only measures the temperature.
5.7 Backlight and fixing
• The supplied battery will be recharged in an environmentally friendly manner by the solar
panel.
• Please consider when choosing a location that the solar panel needs at least 8-10 hours of
light per day to guarantee a long-term sufficient power supply. Attention: Direct sunshine
falsifies the measurement.
• The thermometer is provided with a light sensor to turn on the light automatically at dark
between 5 and 9 o'clock and 18 and 23 o'clock. Avoid the closeness of artificial light (like:
street lighting).
• With the ECO slide it is possible to turn the time controlled illumination on (left) or off (right)

• If the ECO mode is not active the illumination will turn on automatically as soon as the light
sensor indicates darkness.
• When the battery symbol appears on the display, the voltage of the rechargeable battery is
low and the back light function can be temporarily disabled, until the power supply by the
solar panel is sufficient again.
• Press the plate firmly into the ground.
• Mount the rod and put it into the ground passing through the hole in the middle of the plate.
Fix the thermometer on the rod and turn the solar panel (rotatable 180°) to the direction
where it receives the highest light supply.
