    Note: After setting up, readings for weather forecasts should be disregarded for the next 12-24 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.

    To reset the minimum and maximum temperature and humidity data and the times at which they were recorded, press the IN key continuously for about 3 seconds. This will reset all minimum and maximum data recorded to the current time, date, temperature and humidity.

  • Page 22: Positioning The Weather Station

    Note: When the 433MHz signal is received correctly, do not re-open the battery cover of either the transmitter or Weather Station, as the batteries may spring free from the contacts and force a false reset. Should this happen accidentally then reset all units (see Setting up above) otherwise transmission problems may occur. The transmission range is about 25 m from the transmitter to the Weather Station (in open space).
  • Page 23: Care And Maintenance

    There is also double sided tape included with the wall mount. On smooth surfaces this can be used instead of drilling holes. The mounting surface can, however, affect the transmission range. If for example the unit is attached to a piece of metal, it may then either reduce or increase the transmitting range. For this reason, we recommend not placing the unit on any metal surfaces or in any position where a large metal or highly polished surface is in the immediate proximity (garage doors, double glazing, etc.).
