SET UP:

Note: This weather station receives only one outdoor transmitter.
Do not mix old and new batteries. Do not mix alkaline, standard, or rechargeable batteries.

1. First, insert the batteries into the temperature transmitter. (see “Install and replace batteries in the
temperature transmitter“).

2. Within 30 seconds, insert the batteries into weather station (see “Install and replace batteries in the
weather station”). Once the batteries are in place, all segments of the LCD will light up briefly. Then the time

(default 12:00) and the weather icon will be displayed. If these are not displayed after 60 seconds, remove the
batteries and wait for at least 60 seconds before reinserting them.

3. After inserting the batteries, the weather station will start receiving data from the transmitter. The outdoor
temperature and the signal reception icon should then be displayed on the weather station. If this does not
happen after 3 minutes, the batteries will need to be removed from both units and reset from step 1.

4. In order to ensure successful 915 MHz transmission, this should under good conditions be a distance no
more than 200 feet/100 meters between the final position of the weather station and the transmitter (see
notes on “Mounting” and “915 MHz Reception”).

HOW TO INSTALL AND REPLACE BATTERIES IN THE WEATHER STATION

HOW TO INSTALL AND REPLACE BATTERIES IN THE TEMPERATURE TRANSMITTER

The weather station uses 2 x AA, IEC LR6, 1.5V batteries. When batteries need
to be replaced, the low battery icon will appear on the LCD. To install and
replace the batteries, please follow the steps below:

1. Lift up the battery compartment cover.

2. Insert batteries observing the correct polarity (see marking).

3. Replace compartment cover.

6

The temperature transmitter uses 2 x AAA, IEC LR3, 1.5V batteries. To install and replace the batteries,
please follow the steps below:

BATTERY CHANGE:

It is recommended to replace the batteries in all units regularly to ensure optimum accuracy of these units
(Battery life see “Specifications”).

1. Remove the battery compartment cover at the back of the transmitter.

2. Insert the batteries, observing the correct polarity (see marking).

3. Replace the battery compartment cover on the unit.

Note:

In the event of changing batteries in any of the units, all units need to be reset by
following the setting up procedures. This is because a security code is assigned by the
transmitter at start-up and this code must be received and stored by the Weather
station in the first 3 minutes of power being supplied to it.

Please participate in the preservation of the environment. Return used batteries to an
authorized depot.
