Problem Possible Solution
Display is
blank
Commonly, this is due to a loss of AC power:
• Verify the power adapter is plugged into an active power outlet and the Micro USB cable is properly
inserted into the device.
• After a loss of power, you will need to reset its time and
temperature units.
Commonly, inaccurate readings are due to where it is located.Inaccurate
readings Verify the AcuRite Air is NOT located:
• In direct sunlight.
• Near heat sources such as vents, stoves, or other elements that emit heat.
• On or near a window or other uninsulated surface, such as a brick wall, that can get much warmer or cooler.
• In a confined location where the air may not circulate enough.
•In an area where airflow changes often, such as by air conditioning and heat vents, fans,
doors or windows.
It’s recommended to also ensure the two air inlets do not have accumulated dust. A gentle puff of air can
help to clear the air inlets and remove dust particles.
