Before initial use
General information
CAUTION! When choosing where to position
the weather station,
make sure that it is not exposed
to direct sunlight, vibrations, dust, heat, cold or
moisture. Do not place the weather station or exter-
nal sensor near to heat sources, e.g. radiators, as
this may result in damage to the instruments.
Place the weather station on the accompany-
ing stand 25.
Do not place the devices near sources of in-
terference such as television sets, computers,
thick walls, thermopane windows etc. Other-
wise the transmission of radio waves between
the devices may be impaired.
Please ensure that neighbouring devices are
not operated at the same frequency of
433MHz. Such devices may cause interfer-
ence to the radio connection.
Do not place the devices next to or on metal
plates. Otherwise the quality of radio wave
transmission may be reduced.
Radio signal (DCF):
The DCF signal (time signal transmitter) is made
up of time pulses transmitted from one of the high-
est precision clocks in the world close to Frankfurt/
Main in Germany – it varies by 1 second in 1mil-
lion years.
In ideal conditions, your weather station can pick
up this signal over a distance of up to approx.
1,500km around Frankfurt/Main.

13GB
Preparing to use
the outdoor sensor
Inserting the batteries:
Remove the battery compartment cover from
the back of the outdoor sensor.
Insert two 1. 5V batteries (AA) (included)
into the battery compartment 30 .
Note: Make sure you fit the batteries the
right way round (polarity). This is shown in the
battery compartment.
The outdoor sensor is now ready for use and
the control LED 28 illuminates briefly.
Close the battery compartment cover.
Preparing the weather station
for use
Inserting the batteries:
Open the battery compartment 24 on the
back of the weather station.
Insert two 1. 5V batteries (AA) (included)
into the battery compartment.
Note: Make sure you fit the batteries the
right way round (polarity). This is shown on
the battery compartment (see Figs. C + E).
Close the battery compartment cover.
Connecting the weather station with the
outdoor sensor and the DCF radio sig-
nal:
After the batteries have been inserted, the
weather station attempts to establish a connection
with the outdoor sensor. This process can take a
few minutes. The symbol flashes. Once the

14 GB
device has successfully connected to the external
sensor, the symbol stops flashing and the tem-
perature is shown in the LC display.
Note: If the weather station does not receive the
signal from the outdoor sensor within 3 minutes,
the weather station automatically starts with the
reception of the radio time signal.
After successful reception of the outdoor sensor
signal or after 3 minutes, the weather station starts
with the reception of the radio time signal. This
process can take up to 5 minutes and is indicated
in the LC display by the flashing symbol 11 .
After successful reception of the DCF radio signal,
the symbol is displayed continuously in the
LC display.
Note: Do not move the weather station while it is
receiving the signal. Otherwise this could interfere
with reception.
If synchronisation is not possible when the
weather station is being first set up, try changing
the location (e.g. place the weather station near
to a window).
If this does not work, carry out a restart, if
necessary. To do this, press and keep pressed
the ZZ/REGISTER button 18 ..
Reception may be considerably reduced by obstruc-
tions (e.g. concrete walls) or sources of interference
(e.g. other electrical devices).

15GB
If the reception of the radio signal continues to be
interrupted, you can set the time and date manu-
ally (see “Setting the language/time zone/time/
date manually”).
Mounting the weather station and/ or
the outdoor sensor on a wall:
Note: You will require an electric drill and a
crosshead screwdriver for this step.
CAUTION! DANGER TO LIFE, RISK OF
INJURY AND MATERIAL DAMAGE! Read
the operating and safety instructions for your drill
carefully.
DANGER TO LIFE! Take care
that you do not hit electricity, gas or water lines
when you drill into the wall. If necessary, check
with a pipe and cable detector before drilling.
