[. . . ] If this does not happen after 3 minutes, the batteries will need to be removed from both units and reset from step 1. In order to ensure sufficient 915 MHz transmission however, this should under good conditions be a distance no more than 100 meters (330 feet) between the final position of the Weather Station and the transmitter (see notes on "Mounting" and "915 MHz Reception"). HOW TO INSTALL AND REPLACE BATTERIES IN THE TEMPERATURE TRANSMITTER The Temperature Transmitter uses 2 x AA, IEC LR6, 1. 5V battery. To install and replace the batteries, please follow the steps below: 1. Replace the battery compartment cover on the unit. HOW TO INSTALL AND REPLACE BATTERIES IN THE TEMPERATURE STATION The Weather Station uses 3 x AA, IEC LR6, 1. 5V batteries. [. . . ] The icons display weather forecasts in terms of getting better or worse, and not necessarily sunny or rainy as each icon indicates. For example, if the current weather is cloudy and the rainy icon is displayed, it does not mean that the product is faulty because it is not raining. It simply means that the air pressure has dropped and the weather is expected to get worse but not necessarily rainy. Note : After setting up, readings for weather forecasts should be disregarded for the next 48-60 hours. This will allow sufficient time for the Weather Station to collect air pressure data at a constant altitude and therefore result in a more accurate forecast. Common to weather forecasting, absolute accuracy cannot be guaranteed. The weather forecasting feature is estimated to have an accuracy level of about 75% due to the varying areas the Weather Station has been designed 11 12 for use in. In areas that experience sudden changes in weather (for example from sunny to rain), the Weather Station will be more accurate compared to use in areas where the weather is stagnant most of the time (for example mostly sunny). If the Weather Station is moved to another location significantly higher or lower than its initial standing point (for example from the ground floor to the upper floors of a house), remove the batteries and re-insert them after about 30 seconds. By doing this, the Weather Station will not mistake the new location as being a possible change in air-pressure when really it is due to the slight change of altitude. Again, disregard weather forecasts for the next 4860 hours as this will allow time for operation at a constant altitude. THE WEATHER TENDENCY INDICATOR Working together with the weather icons are the weather tendency indicators (located on the left and right hand side of the weather icons). When the indicator points upwards, it means that the air-pressure is increasing and the weather is expected to improve, but when indicator points downwards, the air-pressure is dropping and the weather is expected to become worse. Taking this into account, you will see how the weather has changed and how it is expected to change. For example, if the indicator is pointing downwards together with cloud and sun icons, then the last noticeable change in the weather was when it was sunny (sun icon only). Therefore, the next change in the weather will be the cloud with rain icons since the indicator is pointing downwards. Note : Once the weather tendency indicator has registered a change in the air pressure, it will remain permanently visualized on the LCD. INDOOR TEMPERATURE AND MIN/MAX RECORDS The indoor temperature and indoor MIN/MAX records are displayed on the last section of the LCD. Indoor icon Indoor Temperature MAX record MIN record Note: The MIN/MAX indoor temperature range is 15ºF to 99ºF with 1ºF resolution (-9ºC to + 38ºC with 1°C resolution). OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE AND MIN/MAX RECORDS The outdoor temperature and outdoor MIN/MAX records are displayed on the last section of the LCD. Outdoor icon Outdoor Temperature MAX record Outdoor reception signal icon MIN record Note: The MIN/MAX outdoor temperature resolution range is -40ºF to 140ºF with 1ºF resolution (-40ºC to + 60ºC with 1°C resolution). RESETTING THE INDOOR AND OUTDDOR MIN/MAX RECORDS Note: All the MIN/MAX records will be reset at the same time. 13 14 1. In normal display mode, press and hold the MIN/MAX RESET key for 3 seconds. If no Free standing With the foldout stand, the weather station can be placed onto any flat surface. 15 16 POSITIONING THE TEMPERATURE TRANSMITTER: The Transmitter is supplied with a holder that may be attached to a wall with the two screws supplied. The Transmitter can also be position on a flat surface by securing the stand to the bottom to the Transmitter. To wall mount: 1. Secure the bracket onto a desired wall using the screws and plastic anchors.
