GPIO.setup(17, GPIO.OUT)
while True:
    # Turn LED on
    GPIO.output(17, GPIO.HIGH)
    time.sleep(1)
    
    # Turn LED off
    GPIO.output(17, GPIO.LOW)
    time.sleep(1)
```
Explanation:
1. Import the RPi.GPIO module and time module.
2. Set up GPIO mode to use the Broadcom numbering system.

sensor = Adafruit_DHT.DHT11
pin = 4
while True:
    # Read temperature and humidity
    humidity, temperature = Adafruit_DHT.read_retry(sensor, pin)
    
    # Print values
    print(f'Temperature: {temperature:.1f}C')
    print(f'Humidity: {humidity:.1f}%')
    time.sleep(2)
```
Explanation:
1. Import the Adafruit_DHT module.
2. Set up the DHT11 sensor on GPIO Pin 4.
