In order to get the full screen brightness and easy visability of all numbers and symbols, we recommend you use the included mains adaptor rather than batteries for the main unit. The remote sensor will work better if the main unit is powered by the included mains adaptor rather than batteries. Regarding the wireless remote sensor (which can be positioned indoors or outdoors), if it is used outside particulatly in cold conditions we reccomend the use of Lithium AAA (requires 2) batteries as this will result in a more powerful signal and ensure no signal loss. This is only precautionary advice and the remote sensor does work ne with normal Alkaline batteries. If the main unit does not connect with the remote sensor, press and hold the CH button for 2 secons and it will rescan in order to nd the remote sensor. The weather station needs to be powered for 12 hours before an accurate predition will display.

5.2 Temperature Trend Display
After you insert the batteries, the weather station measures the current temperature. The trend display shows a neutral temperature course (horizontal arrow). The further course of the trend display is determined as follows: ● If, after an hour, the temperature is more than 1°C higher than the value measured rst, then a positive course is displayed (arrow pointing upwards). ● If, after an hour, the temperature is more than 1°C lower than the value measured rst, then a negative course is displayed (arrow pointing downwards). ● If the temperature does not change within an hour, the the upward or downward pointing arrow becomes a horizontal arrow. The measured temperature is then taken as the neutral value from which further prognoses are made.
5.4 Maximum/Minimum Temperature
To toggle indoor/outdoor maximum, minimum temperature press the ‘MEM’ button: ● Once to show the maximum temperature values. ● Twice to show the minimum temperature values. ● Three times to return to the current temperature levels. ● To reset the maximum and minimum temperature, press and hold down the ‘MEM’ button for about 2 seconds. This will reset all minimum and maximum data recorded to the current displayed values.6. HUMIDITY AND AIR PRESSURE INFORMATION
After you insert the batteries, the weather station measures the current relative humidity. The trend display shows a neutral relative humidity course (horizontal arrow). The further course of the trend display is determined as follows: ● If, after an hour, the relative humidity is more than 5% higher than the value measured rst, then a positive course is displayed (arrow pointing upwards). ● If, after an hour, the relaive humidity is more than 5% lower than the value measured rst, then a negative course is displayed (arrow pointing downwards). ● If the relative humidty does not change within an hour, the the upward or downward pointing arrow becomes a horizontal arrow. The measured relative humidity is then taken as the neutral value from which further prognoses are made.
6.2 Maximum/Minimum Relative Humidity
To toggle indoor/outdoor maximum, minimum humidity data press the ‘MEM’ button: ● Once to show the maximum humidity data values. ● Twice to show the minimum humidity data values. ● Three times to return to the current humidity data levels. ● To reset the maximum and minimum humidity data, press and hold down the ‘MEM’ button for about 2 seconds. This will reset all minimum and maximum data recorded to the current displayed values.
6.3 Air Pressure Display
The course of the air pressure is displayed on the display in the form of a histogram. You have the options of displaying the air pressure in mb/hPa or in Hg. To switch between these displays, briey press the ‘MPA/INHG’ button.
6.3 Relative Air Pressure History
The relative air pressure history can be displayed numerically to view the air pressure changes over the last 0-12 hours. Press the ‘HISTORY’ button to display the recorded air pressure changes during the last 0-12 full hours. The numeric recorded air pressure will be displayed according to the hour. The relative air pressure is displayed either in hPa or in Hg. Briey pressing the ‘MPA/INHG’ button allows you to switch between the individual modes.7. WEATHER FORECAST / MOON AND TIDE INDICATOR
The weather station use the air pressure data of the last 4 hours to create a weather forecast for the next 12 to 24 hours. It must be taken into account that the data within the rst 12 hours after inserting the batteries will not be correct, as the weather station has to get used to the environmental circumstances after the restart. The forecast can be given for a radius of up to 12-20km. When forecasting the weather, the station uses 5 icons: sunny, light cloud cover, cloudy, rain and stormy. Light Cloud Cover Sunny Cloudy Rainy Stormy Press and hold down the ‘HISTORY’ button for 2 seconds until the weather forecasting icon ashes. Use the ‘MPA/INHG’ button to modify the 5 icons: sunny, light cloud cover, cloudy, rain and stormy. Press the ‘HISTORY’ button again to conrm your settings and to end the setting procedure.
