WEATHER FORECAST ICONS: The Forecast Station predicts weather condition of the next 12-hours based on the change of atmospheric pressure with 70-75% accuracy. Note: As weather conditions cannot be 100% correctly forecasted we are not responsible for any loss caused by an incorrect forecast. The three hour pressure icon change is based off of the last four average hourly readings. THIS STATION LEARNS! The forecast station calibrates barometric pressure based on its location over a period of time to generate an accurate, personal forecast. Please allow 3 to 4 weeks for barometer calibration. IMPORTANT: As the forecast station builds memory, it will compare the current average pressure to the past forty day average pressure for increased accuracy. The longer the forecast station operates in one location the more accurate the forecast icons will be. FORECAST TREND ICON: The forecast trend arrows in the upper right corner of the forecast display indicate the rising or falling pressure trend. Rising Pressure Falling Pressure The up trending arrow indicates the weather is improving. The down trending arrow indicates the weather may worsen. When there is no arrow the pressure is steady. LOW BATTERY: When this icon appears in the indoor (IN) reading section, replace the batteries in the Forecast Station. When this icon appears in the outdoor (OUT) readings section, replace the batteries in the outdoor transmitter. CARE AND MAINTENANCE: Do Not Mix Old and New Batteries Do Not Mix Alkaline, Standard, Lithium or Rechargeable Batteries Do not expose the forecast station to extreme temperatures, vibration or shock. Keep forecast station dry. Clean forecast station with a soft damp cloth. Do not use solvents or scouring agents. The forecast station is not a toy. Keep it out of reach of children. The forecast station is not to be used for medical purpose or for public information, but is determined for home use only. The specifications of this forecast station may change without prior notice. Improper use or unauthorized opening of housing will void the warranty. POSITION THE FORECAST STATION: Choose a location for the forecast station that is within range of the outdoor transmitter. The forecast station has a built in base stand to sit on a table or desk. Choose a location 6 feet or more from electronics such as cordless phones, gaming systems, televisions, microwaves, routers, baby monitors, etc., which can prevent signal reception. Be aware of electrical wires and plumbing within a wall. Best reception is achieved when the front or the back of the forecast station is facing the outdoor transmitter. This allows a larger portion of the antenna to receive a signal. POSITION THE OUTDOOR TRANSMITTER: Once the Forecast station shows the outdoor temperature/humidity, place it and the transmitter in the desired locations and wait approximately 1-hour before permanently mounting the transmitter to ensure that there is proper reception. The transmitter should be mounted vertically, in a shaded, protected area, at least 6 feet from the ground to avoid damage and ensure accurate readings. The transmitter is water resistant, not waterproof and should not be placed anywhere it will become submerged in water or subject to standing water or snow. The forecast station samples the barometric pressure every twelve minutes. These samples are averaged hourly and daily then stored in nonvolatile memory. Choose a location for the transmitter that is within range of the Forecast station and under an overhang for accuracy. Option 1: Install one mounting screw (not included) into a wall leaving approximately ½ of an inch (12.7mm) extended. Place the transmitter onto the screw, using the hanging hole on the backside. Gently pull the transmitter down to lock the screw into place. Option 2: Insert the mounting screw (not included) through the front of the transmitter and into the wall. Tighten the screw to snug (do not over tighten).
