OPERATION
Plug in the original power cord or insert 3 x AAA batteries observing
polarity. All icons on the screen of main unit will light up for 3

indicating that the outdoor sensor sends a wireless signal once.
After the indoor temperature and humidity detection is completed,
the main unit will begin to establish a connection with the outdoor
sensor ( note: please keep the channel of the main unit and outdoor

07 WEATHER FORECAST
AND BAROMETRIC
7.1 Weather Forecast
The Station calculates a weather forecast for the next 6 -12 hours
based on the barometric pressure trend, NOT the current weather.
Of course this forecast can not compare to that of professional
weather services supported by satellites and high performace com-
puters, but merely provides an approximate indication of current
developments. Please give priority to the weather forecast of the
local weather forecast service.
The weather station displays the following weather symbols:
It usually takes about 7 to 10 days for barometric calibration as it
will ensure an accurate forecast for your location. When using the
device for the first time, please wait a few days to correct the weath-
er forecast. To speed up device response and measurement time,
you can also manually calibrate the current weather icon.
The flashing clouds indicate that the system is operating normally,
not that the product is malfunctioning.
The snowy weather forecast icon only appears when the outside
temperature is -4 ℃ / 24.8℉.
