[. . . ] However, if the 19 icon displayed is a sun or raining cloud, there will be no change of icon if the weather gets any better (with sunny icon) or worse (with rainy icon) since the icons are already at their extremes. The icons displayed forecasts the weather 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 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. 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 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). 20 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 reinsert 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 12 to 24 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 (the upward and downward arrow located near the Weather man). 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 airpressure is dropping and the weather is expected to become worse. 21 Therefore, user may see how the weather has changed and is expected to change. For example, if the indicator is pointing downwards together with cloudy icons, it means that the last noticeable change in the weather was when it was sunny (the sunny icon only). Therefore, the next change in the weather will be the cloudy icons since the indicator is pointing downwards. 3. By pressing OUT button once more, the max outdoor temperature will be shown. Press one more OUT button to advance to normal display. RESETTING THE OUTDOOR MAXIMUM/ MINIMUM TEMPERATURE RECORDS Note: The outdoor minimum and maximum records are to be reset at the same time 1. In normal display mode, press the OUT key once. The min outdoor temperature will be displayed. 26 2. Then press and hold the OUT key for about 3 seconds, this will reset the outdoor minimum and maximum temperatures to the current value. 915 MHz RECEPTION The Weather station should receive the temperature data within 5 minutes after set-up. If the temperature data is not received 5 minutes after setting up (not successfully continuously, the outdoor display shows "- - -" ), please check the following points: 1. The distance of the Weather station or sensor should be at least 1. 5 to 2 meters away from any interfering sources such as computer monitors or TV sets. Avoid positioning the Weather station onto or in the immediate proximity of metal window frames. [. . . ] Never touch the exposed electronic circuit of the device as there is a danger of electric shock should it become exposed. Do not expose the units to extreme and sudden temperature changes, this may lead to rapid changes in forecasts and readings and thereby reduce their accuracy.
