91953 Courtaboeuf Cedex, France.

Congratulations on your purchase of this weather station, MeteoClock® Silver SM940_02. Please take the time to read and understand this manual so you can begin to enjoy the convenience and features this product has to offer.

What exactly is a Weather Station?

Lexibook digital stations measure not only the time in progress – thanks to their built-in-clock but also the actual and upcoming weather.

The MeteoClock® Silver SM940 02 incorporates the following functions:

- Thermometer:

The temperature is displayed in real time to the nearest tenth of a degree Celsius. Thanks to its wireless sensor, the station can detect from a distance the outdoor temperature or that of another room.

- Hygrometer:

Outdoor or indoor hygrometry is expressed in percentage of humidity in the ambient air. The ideal 'Comfort Zone' for the human body ranges from 35 to 65% hygrometry for a given temperature between 18 and 24°C.

- Barometer:

The station also monitors the atmospheric pressure in real time. It displays the weather forecast by means of animated icons (sun, clouds, rain...) and for the next 12 to 24 hours.

3. Close the battery compartment.

- 1.5V SIZE AA UM-3 OR LR6 + +/+ 1.5V SIZE AA UM-3 OR LR6 -

Note:

• When then main unit and remote sensor's batteries are low, the "low battery" indicator is displayed on the LCD screen of the main unit.
• When the main unit's LCD display becomes dim, it indicates that the batteries are low and need to be changed.
• If the sensor is exposed to very low temperatures for an extended period of time, the batteries may lose power which may cause the transmission range to be limited. High temperatures also reduce the battery performance.

Non-rechargeable batteries are not to be recharged. Remove the storage batteries before recharging. Recharge storage batteries under adult supervision. Do not mix different types of battery and storage battery, or new and old batteries or storage batteries. Insert batteries and storage batteries according to the polarity. Remove used storage batteries from product. Do not short-circuit the battery or storage battery terminals. Keep batteries away from fire. If the product remains unused for an extended period, remove batteries.

WARNING: Mal-function or loss of memory may be caused by strong frequency interference or electrostatic discharge. Should any abnormal function occur, remove the batteries and insert them again.

Automatic synchronization of the main unit and the remote sensor

1. After batteries have been inserted in the main unit, the synchronization is launched automatically and runs for approximately 3 minutes.
2. Within these 3 minutes, the main unit (receiver) picks up the temperature & humidity signals from the remote sensor and displays the readings.
3. If the main unit does not display the readings after 3 minutes, open the remote sensor and press the "TX" key to synchronize manually the remote sensor and the main unit.

Note: it may take up to 1 minute before the main unit displays the readings.

CHANNEL SELECTION

The SM940_02 comes with one remote sensor. The sensor's default channel is channel 1. You do not need to change it. However, if the sensor (or the main unit) is too close to other electrical devices, interference may cause malfunction. Use the channel selector located inside the sensor's battery compartment to change the channel and improve the reception. Then select the matching channel on the main unit.

Channel setting

1. Press the "Channel" key repeatedly to select the desired outdoor channel between the 3 available channels. The selected channel must be the same as the one chosen for the remote sensor with the channel selector. If the channels are different, the main unit will no be able to receive the data sent by the sensor.

2. To reset the temperature and humidity readings of the remote sensor, press and hold the "Channel" key for a few seconds.

Note: If the sensor is exposed to very low temperatures for an extended period of time, the batteries may lose power which may cause the transmission range to be limited. High temperatures also reduce the battery performance.

The channel function allows you to use up to 3 additional sensors. The main unit can identify each remote sensor thanks to their assigned channel (channel 1, 2 or 3). If you have one or two additional sensors, you can place them in a different location in your house; in a bedroom, for example. Your main unit can collect the temperature and humidity data of up to three remote sensors.

Multiple sensor use

1. Make sure you set each sensor to a different channel.
2. Press the TX key inside the remote sensors to synchronize them manually with the main unit. The weather station will detect automatically the new sensors.
   Note: it may take up to 1 minute before the main unit displays the readings.
3. Press the "Channel" key repeatedly to select the desired outdoor channel
4. The data of the corresponding remote sensor will be displayed on the main unit's LCD screen.

The ideal "Comfort Zone" for the human body ranges from 35 to 65% hygrometry for a given temperature between 18°C and 24°C (the temperature and hygrometry conditions are ideal for your well-being and a refreshing sleep).

WEATHER FORECAST AND DISPLAY

Animated Weather Forecast Symbols

This weather station is capable of detecting barometric pressure changes, and based on the data collected, predicting the weather for the next 8 to 24 hours. There are 4 different weather forecast symbols.

Sunny	Slightly cloudy	Cloudy	Rainy

Note: Absolute accuracy cannot be guaranteed regarding weather forecasting. 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 to be used in.

TEMPERATURE & HUMIDITY TREND

The trend indicators show the recent trend of the outdoor temperature & humidity.

→ Indicates that the outdoor temperature or humidity trend is increasing.
→ Indicates that the outdoor temperature or humidity trend is steady.
Indicates that the outdoor temperature or humidity trend is decreasing.

MOON PHASES

Throughout the 28 days of the lunar month, the aspect of the moon changes. Indeed, the moon, being spherical, is always half lightened up by the sun. As the moon rotates around the Earth, the appearance of its lightened side changes continuously. This phenomenon creates moon phases. The moon phase on your MeteoClock® is automatically updated according to the year / month / day.
