INTRODUCTION
Thank you for selecting the Oregon Scientific™ WeatherNow Dynamic 4-Day Forecaster with MSN® Direct Weather Data Service (WMS802).

NOTE Indoor temperature is measured by the product’s internal sensors.
NOTE After the unit is turned on, it will usually take
between 4 and 15 minutes to acquire the MSN Direct signal and obtain weather information, depending on the strength of the signal. If the weather is not displayed within 15 minutes, please ensure the antenna chord is fully extended, and either reposition the antenna or move the unit to another location with better reception.
Keep this manual handy as you use your new product. It contains practical step-by-step instructions, as well as technical specifications and warnings you should know about.
