DETAILED SET-UP GUIDE BATTERY INSTALLATION A. REMOTE TEMPERATURE TRANSMITTER 1. Remove the battery cover. Place your thumb over the two air-vent slots on the face of the Remote Temperature Transmitter, push down gently, slide battery cover down and off. 2. Observing the correct polarity, install 2 AAA batteries.

and install them again—carefully observing the polarity. C. LOW-BATTERY & BATTERY REPLACEMENT FEATURES When the batteries become weak in the Weather Temperature Station, a low battery indicator (shaped as a battery) appears in the LCD screen between the Hour display and the Minute display. When you replace the batteries in the Weather Temperature Station, the LCD screen will continue to display its stored...
A. THE TIME DISPLAY The time is displayed vertically (with the hour displayed above the minutes) rather than in the conventional horizontal format. The hour and minute displays are separated by a flashing dot, which indicates the seconds. The time is only displayed in the 12h mode, there is no 24h option.

INDOOR TEMPERATURE The Weather Temperature Station monitors the temperature within its immediate proximity, and displays this temperature in the INDOOR LCD. The temperature is monitored as soon as the batteries are installed. II. WEATHER FORECAST The weather forecasting feature is estimated to be 75% accurate.

be displayed in the FORECAST LCD: Sunny—indicates that the weather is expected to improve (not that the weather will be sunny). Clouds— indicates that the weather is expected to be fair (not that the weather will be sunny with clouds).

change in order from: “sunny” to “sun with clouds” to “clouds with rain,” or the reverse. It will not change from “sunny” directly to “rainy,” although it is possible for the change to occur quickly. If the symbols do not change then the weather has not changed, or the change has been too slow and gradual to register.
III. OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE—WITH MINIMUM & MAXIMUM FEATURE The Weather Temperature Station receives the outdoor temperature from Remote Temperature Transmitter, and the temperature appears in the OUTDOOR LCD. The Remote Temperature Transmitter makes a temperature update every 1 minute, and transmits a new temperature to the Weather Temperature Station 3 times every 10 minutes.

A. VIEWING THE MINIMUM/MAXIMUM TEMPERATURES 1. Press the circular MIN/MAX button (under all LCD displays) once. arrow will appear and point to the “MIN” that is printed in the right-hand margin. The minimum-recorded temperature will display in the OUDOOR LCD. 2.
B. RESETTING THE MINIMUM/MAXIMUM TEMPERATURE 1. Press and hold the MIN/MAX button for 3 seconds. This will reset all records to the current outdoor temperature. MOUNTING Note: Extreme and sudden changes in temperature will decrease the accuracy of the Weather Temperature Station, and changes in elevation will result with inaccurate weather forecasting for the next 12 to 24 hours.

their desired location, and wait approximately 10 minutes before permanently mounting to ensure that there is proper reception. Temperature Station should display a temperature in the OUTDOOR LCD within 3 minutes of setting-up. THE REMOTE TEMPERATURE TRANSMITTER The Remote Temperature Transmitter can be mounted in two ways: •...
