INSTALLING AND REPLACING BATTERIES
The unit uses four UM-4 ‘AAA’ size batteries. If the ‘BATT’ indicator appears, remove the exhausted
batteries and follow below steps to install or replace the batteries:
1. Lift and pull up the top center edge of the battery compartment cover, than remove the cover.
2. Insert the batteries as indicated by the polarity symbols (+ and -) marked inside the battery compartment.
3. Replace the battery compartment cover.
NOTE After replacing the batteries, the display will be turned on for about 3 seconds and then show the following:
a. Indoor temperature shows the current measurement. b. Outdoor temperature shows the current
measurement.
c. Weather forecast shows slightly cloudy (a sun shows
with the cloud indicator).
d. Pressure trend shows steady. e. Clock shows 12:00 (AM)
The unit takes about 24 hours to store the barometric pressure data. Until that time has elapsed, the pressure trend and weather forecast symbols may not reflect actual weather forecast for your area.
