INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the Oregon Scientific weather station.
This weather station has been designed specifically with
performance and ease of use in mind. As with all Oregon
Scientific products, this barometer is made to the highest quality
standards using precision electronic components and should give
you many years of trouble free use. Please note that the accuracy
of the weather forecasting is about 70 ~ 75 percent.
FEATURES & KEY CONFIGURATION

GB
BATTERT INSTALLATION
The unit uses four UM-4 "AAA" size batteries. If the " "
indicator appears, removes the exhausted batteries and follow
these steps to replace the batteries:
1. Unscrew the battery door at the bottom of the unit.
2. Remove the battery cover and insert the batteries as indicated
by the polarity symbols (+ and -) marked inside the battery
compartment.
3. Replace the battery door and fasten the screw.
Note: After replacing the batteries, the whole display
will be turned on for about 3 seconds and then
show the following:
a. Weather forecast shows slightly cloudy (a sun with the cloud
indicator )
b. Pressure trend shows steady.
c. Barometric pressure shows the current reading.
The unit takes about 24 hours to store the barometric pressure
date. Until that time has elapsed, the pressure trend and
weather forecast symbols may not reflect actual weather
forecast for your area.
HOW TO READ THE ILLUSTRATED
WEATHER FORECAST SYMBOLS
Your weather station detects barometric pressure changes and
the LCD displays the illustsrated weather symbols which indicating
the weather forecast for 12 or 24 hours ahead, for an area with a
radius of about 18-30 miles.
Important:
1. The accuracy of weather forecasting when using pressure
trend alone is about 70 to 75 percent and, therefore, we
cannot be held responsible for any inconveniences caused by
an inaccurate weather forecast.
2. The weather forecasts symbols reflect forecast 12-24 hours in
the future and not the current situation..
3. A ' Sunny ' forecast reflects fine clear weather.
HOW TO READ THE PRESSURE
TREND CHART
Stored memory of the barometric pressure changes are displayed
on the chart, in 5 steps indicating the pressure 1,3,6,12 and 24
hours ago. This chart is plotted by comparing the past barometric
pressure to the present pressure.
This gives you the pressure trend over the last 24 hours. The
weather will be getting better ( worse ) if this chart shows the bar
marks moving up ( down ) towards the present time.
Important:
It is only possible to measure the barometric pressure trend
properly if your barometer remains at the same altitude.
When moving around at different altitude within a short time
period, the air pressure changes. The barometric pressure reading
is precise only if the barometer has remained at a constant
altitude for 24 hours.
However, please note again the accuracy of a weather forecast
based on the barometric pressure reading. It is considered to
be about 70-75%.
HOW TO SET THE ALTITUDE
1. Press and hold the [ SET ] button for 2 seconds to set the
altitude. The 'ALT ' indicator will turn on with the altitude
setting flashing (display in meter). The accuracy of a general
pressure-based weather forecast is about 70% to 75%.
Increase/decrease the altitude in steps of 10 meter by pressing
[ ] or [ ] button.
2. Press the [ SET ] button again to set the altitude. At this time
the previous pressure display will reappear. If the altitude
has been changed, the ' ALT ' indicator flashing (about 15
minutes ) until a new sampling takes place and the pressure
reading is then compensated with the new altitude.
3. Press the [ SET ] button 6 times to confirm the setting you
just entered or wait for one minute for automatic exit.
Note: For monitoring the local barometric pressure reading,
the user needs to select the 0 meter ( preset value ) for the
altitude setting.
For monitoring the Sea Level barometric pressure reading
at certain altitude, the user needs to select the local altitude
(-100 to 2500 meters i.e. -328 to 8223 feet) for the altitude
setting. The BHB-613 requires entry of elevation in meters
not feet. Therefore, to convert feet to meters, multiply feet
by 0.3048.
To determine your location elevation, please either contact
your local library, TV/ radio weather forecaster, or via
Intenet at www.worldatlas.com/aatals/infopage/
elevation.htm.

to authorized disposal stations.
GETTING STARTED
Once batteries are placed in a given remote sensor unit, it will
start transmitting information at 40-second intervals.
Also, for approximately a 3-minute duration, the main unit will
automatically search for signals once batteries are installed. Upon
successful reception, the individual channel temperature reading
will be displayed on the upper window and the respective humidity
reading on the lower window. The main unit will automatically
update its readings at about 40-second intervals.
If no signals are received, blanks “ --- ” will be displayed and the
RF signal indicator will not show.
To force a signal search:
◊Press and hold IN/REMOTE for 2-seconds to enforce a
3-minute search.
This is useful in synchronizing the transmission and reception of
the remote and main units.
Repeat this step whenever you find discrepancies between the
reading shown on the main unit and that on the respective remote
unit.
HOW TO CHECK REMOTE AND INDOOR
TEMPERATURES & HUMIDITIES
Display of readings from a remote sensor or the main unit is a
one-step procedure. The remote sensor channel or the main unit
display is indicated under the readings.
To display indoor temperature & humidity :
◊Press IN / REMOTE until "in" is displayed under the
readings.
To display remote temperature & humidity :
◊Press CHANNEL until the appropriate remote sensor channel
is displayed under the readings.
If no readings are received from one particular channel for more
than 15 minutes, blanks “ --- ” will be displayed until further
readings are successfully searched. Check the remote sensor to
ensure that it is secure and that the correct channel has been
selected. Optionally, press and hold IN/REMOTE for 2-seconds
to enforce a search.
MAXIMUM AND MINIMUM
TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY
The maximum and minimum recorded temperature and humidity
readings will automatically be stored in the memory.
To display the maximum and minimum display memory:
1. Select the channel to be checked.

If that fails, check:
1. The remote unit of that channel is still in place.
2. The batteries of both the remote unit and main unit. Replace
as necessary.
Note that when the temperature falls below freezing point,
the batteries of outdoor units will freeze, lowering their
voltage supply and the effective range.
3. The transmission is within range and path is clear of obstacles
and interference. Shorten the distance when necessary.
TRANSMISSION COLLISION
Signals from other household devices, such as door bells, home
security systems and entry controls, may interfere with those of
this product and cause temporarily reception failure. This is
normal and does not affect the general performance of the product.
The transmission and reception of readings will resume once the
interference recedes.
