It not only displays the indoor temperature and humidity but also receives the outdoor temperature. It is further acting as a DCF-77 radio controlled clock. With the totally 15 different weather forecast icons featured by "Weather man", users can easily observe the forecast weather condition and will no longer worry the sudden weather change. [. . . ] Press the + key to set the month and then press the SET key to go to the date setting. Confirm with the SET key and enter the "Time reception On/Off setting". TIME RECEPTION ON/OFF SETTING flashing 56 In area where reception of the radio-controlled time (DCF time) is not possible, the time reception function can be turned OFF. The clock will then work as a normal Quartz clock. The digit "ON" and the "dCF" digits will start flashing on the LCD. Use the + key to turn OFF the time reception function if necessary. Confirm with the SET key and enter the "12/24-Hour Display setting". Note: If the Time Reception function is turned OFF manually, the clock will not attempt any reception of the radio-controlled time (DCF time) as long as the Time Reception OFF function is activated.

To select ° (degree Fahrenheit): C F 1. The "° or °F" will be flashing, use the + key to toggle between "° and "° C C" F". 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 63 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. [. . . ] The batteries shall be taken out from the unit before the product is to be stored for a long period of time. Immediately remove all low powered batteries to avoid leakage and damage. Replace only with new batteries of the recommended type. When cleaning the display and casings, use a soft damp cloth only. [. . . ]
