First, insert the batteries into the Temperature sensor. (see "Install and replace batteries in the Temperature sensor"). [. . . ] 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). 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 The default temperature reading is set to °F (degree Fahrenheit). The "°C or F" will be flashing, use the + key to toggle between "°C" and "°F". Once the desired temperature unit has been chosen, confirm with the SET key and exit the setting mode. WEATHER FORECAST AND TENDENCY: The weather forecast icons (Weather girl): One of the 15 different weather icons (featured by Weather girl with different clothing) is displayed in the centre of LCD, which indicates the different forecast weather conditions (Sunny, Sunny + Cloudy or Cloudy + Rainy) due to change in air pressure level and the current outdoor temperature: 78. 8F (26C) 66. 2 to 78. 6F (19 to 25. 9C) 50 to 66F (10 to 18. 9C) 32 to 49. 8F (0 to 9. 9C) < 32F (0C) Sunny Working together with the weather icons are the weather tendency indicators (the upward and downward arrow located near the Weather girl). 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. 78. 8F (26C) 66. 2 to 78. 6F (19 to 25. 9C) 50 to 66F (10 to 18. 9C) 32 to 49. 8F (0 to 9. 9C) < 32F (0C) Sunny + Cloudy 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. Note: Once the weather tendency indicator has registered a change in air pressure, it will remain permanently visualized on the LCD. When the tendency indicator is pointing to the right, it means that no pressure change has been detected by the weather station from the beginning. Press the OUT button once, the min outdoor temperature will be displayed. Outdoor icon Min outdoor temperature MOUNTING POSITIONING THE WEATHER STATION: The Weather Station may be hung onto wall easily or free standing. Before wall mounting, please check that the outdoor temperature values can be received from the desired locations. Min icon 2. By pressing OUT button once more, the max outdoor temperature will be shown. [. . . ] Return them to their original point of purchase for repair by a qualified engineer. Opening and tampering with the unit may invalidate their guarantee. 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. La Crosse Technology, Ltd will repair or replace this product, at our option and at no charge as stipulated herein, with new or reconditioned parts or products if found to be defective during the limited warranty period specified above. All replaced parts and products become the property of La Crosse Technology, Ltd and must be returned to La Crosse Technology, Ltd. [. . . ]
