Attention
Only use 1.5 V alkaline batteries of the same type; do not use rechargeable 1.2 V batteries. Lower voltage may cause both of the units to not function.

Getting Started

1. First insert batteries (3× 1.5 V AA) into the weather station, then into the wireless sensor (2× 1.5 V AAA). Make sure the polarity is correct when inserting the batteries to avoid damaging the weather station or sensor.
2. Once batteries have been inserted into the weather station, the screen will briefly light up and the pressure unit icon will start flashing – set it using the +/- buttons, confirm by pressing SNOOZE/LIGHT.
3. The pressure value will start flashing – set it using the +/- buttons, confirm by pressing SNOOZE/ LIGHT.
4. The forecast icon will start flashing – set it using the +/- buttons and confirm by pressing SNOOZE/LIGHT. The setting process will be automatically interrupted if you do not press any button for 20 seconds.
5. The icon for wireless communication with the sensor will start flashing, indicating that the weather station is searching for signal from the outdoor sensor. Place the two units next to each other. If outdoor temperature does not appear within 3 minutes, the weather station will stop searching for signal, the icon for wireless communication with sensor will stop flashing and outdoor temperature/humidity will be displayed as –.-. If signal from the sensor is not detected, repeat the process from step 1.

We recommend placing the sensor on the north side of the house. The range of the sensor may decrease substantially in areas with a large number of obstacles. The sensor is resistant to dripping water; however, it should not be exposed to sustained rain. Do not place the sensor on metal objects as these would reduce transmission range. The sensor can be placed vertically or hung on a wall.

A sensor with a wired probe can be placed in 2 ways:

1. The sensor is located in a room and the wired probe is led to the outside through a gap in the window. In that case, the sensor measures outdoor temperature and indoor humidity.
2. The sensor and the wired probe are located outside. In that case, the sensor measures outdoor temperature and humidity.

• If the weather station screen shows the low battery icon in field no. 9, replace the batteries in the sensor.
• If the weather station screen shows the low battery icon in field no. 21, replace the batteries in the station.

Note:
It may take up to 30 minutes since the insertion of batteries into the units before the station begins correctly displaying all measured data and loads DCF time.

Weather Station RESET
If the weather station displays incorrect data or does not respond to button presses, use a thin tool (e.g. a pencil, paper clip) to press the RESET button on the back of the weather station. This will erase all data; you will need to set the weather station again.

Changing Sensor Channel and Connecting Additional Sensors
The station can be paired with up to 3 wireless sensors.

1. Long-press the CH button on the station; the icon will start flashing.
2. Remove the battery cover on the back of the sensor and insert alkaline batteries (2× 1.5 V AAA).
3. Set the sensor channel number (1, 2, 3) of your choice by repeatedly pressing the CH button.

The channel number will be displayed on the sensor‘s screen next to the humidity value. Data from the sensor will be loaded into the station within 3 minutes. Repeat the whole process if the sensor‘s signal is not detected.

Choose the sensor channel number (1, 2, or 3) by repeatedly pressing the CH button. The number will be displayed on the station‘s screen in field no. 13.

Setting the Station to Display Data from Multiple Sensors
Press the CH button on the weather station repeatedly to view data from each connected sensor one by one.

Radio-Controlled Clock (DCF77)

• After registering the wireless sensor, the weather station will automatically search for DCF77 signal (hereinafter referred to as DCF) for 7 minutes; the icon will flash depending on the strength of DCF signal.
• During the search, no other data on the screen will be updated and buttons will be disabled (except SNOOZE/LIGHT).
• Pressing and holding the AM/PM button for 3 seconds cancels the search for DCF signal.
• Signal detected – the icon stops flashing and the current time and date will be displayed with the icon.

Signal not detected – the DCF icon will not be displayed.
To repeat the search for DCF signal for 7 minutes, press and hold the AM/PM button for 3 seconds. To cancel the search for DCF signal, press and hold the AM/PM button again for 3 seconds. DCF signal will be synchronized regularly every day between 01:00 and 05:00. During summertime,  DST  the icon will be displayed below the time value. In standard conditions (at safe distance from sources of interference, such as TV sets or computer monitors), the reception of time signal takes several minutes.

If the weather station does not detect the signal, follow these steps:

1. Move the weather station to another location and try to detect the DCF signal again.
2. Check the distance of the device from sources of interference (computer monitors or television sets). It should be at least 1.5 to 2 m during the reception of signal.
3. When receiving DCF signal, do not place the weather station in the proximity of metal doors, window frames and other metal structures or objects (washing machines, dryers, refrigerators etc.).
4. DCF signal reception is weaker in reinforced concrete structures (cellars, high-rise buildings etc.), depending on the conditions. In extreme cases, place the weather station close to a window in the direction of a transmitter.

The reception of DCF radio signal is affected by the following factors:

• Thick walls and insulation, basements and cellars.
• Inadequate local geographical conditions (these are difficult to assess in advance).
• Atmospheric disturbances, thunderstorms, electrical appliances with no interference elimination, television sets and computers located near the DCF receiver.

If the weather station cannot detect the DCF signal, time and date must be set manually.

Note:
If the weather station detects the DCF signal but the current time on the display is incorrect (e.g. shifted ±1 hour), you must set the correct time zone for the country where you are using the station, see Manual Setting of Time and Date. The current time will be shown with the appropriate time zone difference.
