[. . . ] As weather conditions cannot be 100% correctly forecasted we cannot be responsible for any loss caused by an incorrect forecast. When first set up allow the clock 48-hours to acclimate to the environment and correctly Forecast Station forecast icons. LCD SCREEN: The LCD screen is split into 5 sections displaying the information for time, calendar, weather forecast, indoor data, and outdoor data. The icons forecast 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 initial set-up, readings for Weather Forecasts should be disregarded for the next 48 hours. This will allow sufficient time for the Forecast Station to collect air pressure data at a constant altitude and therefore result in a more accurate forecast. For every sudden or significant change in the Air Pressure, the Forecast Icons will update accordingly to represent the change in weather. If the icons do not change, then it means either the air pressure has not changed or the change has been too slow for the Forecast Station to register. 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 Forecast Station has been designed for use. In areas that experience sudden changes in weather (for example from sunny to rain), the Forecast 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 Forecast 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), disregard the weather forecast for the next 48-60 hours. By doing this, the Forecast 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. MIN/MAX TEMPERATURE/HUMIDTY DATA: This Forecast Station features daily minimum and maximum temperatures each day starting at midnight (12:00 AM). The clock automatically resets the min/max temperatures at midnight (12:00 AM). VIEW MIN/MAX:  MAX: From a normal display press and release the MIN/MAX button once to view maximum temperature and humidity values for Indoor and Outdoor data. The word MAX will appear next to the indoor and outdoor temperature.  MIN: From a normal display press and release the MIN/MAX button twice to view minimum temperature and humidity values for Indoor or Outdoor data. The word MIN will appear next to the indoor and outdoor temperature.  RESET MIN/MAX: Hold the MIN/MAX button for 5 seconds to reset all indoor and outdoor minimum and maximum values. (The clock automatically resets the min/max temperatures at midnight: 12:00 AM). Note: If you are using multiple transmitters connected to the clock, all channels will reset at the same time. 9 10 HEAT INDEX: Heat Index combines the effects of heat and humidity. It is the apparent temperature of how hot it feels to a human being.
