TO OPERATE YOUR REMOTE RECEIVER
Try to locate your REMOTE RECEIVER in a convenient
part of your house close to the pool. Avoid steel walls or any
other large metal objects or obstructions that might interfere
with the signal reception. The REMOTE RECEIVER has to
be placed on the same level or a level above the pool in the
house (do not place receiver in an underground basement).
The ideal location for your REMOTE RECEIVER would be
by a window overlooking your pool. Test your REMOTE
RECEIVER in different locations in your house to nd the
best working place for your receiver. Connect the power
supply to any 120V, electrical outlet and insert the jack into
the receiver. Check that indicator light is on. Your REMOTE
RECEIVER unit is now ready to receive a transmission from
your POOLGUARD unit. DO NOT USE YOUR REMOTE
RECEIVER OUTDOORS.
