Getting started

Inserting / changing the batteries

Warning – Batteries

•  When inserting batteries, note the correct polarity (+ and – markings) and insert the batteries accordingly. Failure to do so could result in the batteries leaking or exploding.
•  Only use batteries (or rechargeable batteries) that match the specified type.
•  Before you insert the batteries, clean the battery contacts and the polarity contacts.
•  Do not allow children to change batteries without supervision.
•  Do not mix old and new batteries, or batteries of different types or from different manufacturers.
•  Remove the batteries from products that are not being used for an extended period (unless these are being kept ready for an emergency).
•  Do not short-circuit batteries.
•  Do not charge batteries.
•  Do not burn batteries.
•  Keep batteries out of the reach of children.
•  Never open, damage or swallow batteries or allow them to enter the environment. They can contain toxic, environmentally harmful heavy metals.
•  Remove spent batteries from the product and dispose of them without delay.
•  Avoid storing, charging and using in extreme temperatures and at extremely low atmospheric pressures (such as at high altitudes).
• Remove the battery cover on the back of the outdoor sensor and on the weather station.
•  Remove the spent batteries and dispose of them if required. Insert two new type AA batteries into the weather station and the outdoor sensor. Take care to ensure the correct polarity as shown in the diagram in the battery compartment.
•  In the outdoor sensor’s battery compartment, press the channel selector switch to set the correct channel. Using the Down button on the weather station, select the same channel you have selected on your outdoor sensor.
•  The channel connection display for the top left outdoor sensor in the “Outdoor” section of the weather station now flashes for around 3 minutes until the weather station adopts the measurement data from the outdoor sensor.
•  Close the battery compartment by reattaching the covers to the rear of the weather station and the rear of the sensor.

**Installing the app

**

Warning

•  Only operate the product from an approved socket that is connected to the public power supply. The socket must be installed close to the product and must be easily accessible.
•  Disconnect the product from the power supply using the On/Off switch – if this is not available, unplug the power cord from the socket.
•  If using a multi-socket power strip, make sure that the total power consumption of all connected devices does not exceed the power strip’s maximum throughput rating.
•  If you will not be using the product for a prolonged period, disconnect it from mains power.

Integrating devices into the Hama Smart Home (Solution) app

•  Ensure that the weather station is connected to the power supply and that the WiFi symbol below the time display is flashing.
•  When the weather station is switched on for the first time, the Pairing indicator appears below the time display. If this is not the case, press and hold the WiFi button for approx. 5 seconds.

The weather forecast

The weather station calculates a weather forecast for the next approximately 12 hours on the basis of the barometric pressure trend. Of course, this forecast cannot be compared with professional weather services which use satellites and high-performance computers. It does however provide an approximate indicator of the weather developments. Please take the weather forecast from your local weather forecasting service into account along with that of your weather station. If there are differences between the information from the weather station and the local weather forecast, please use the advice from the local weather forecast service as your guide.

The weather station uses the following symbols

The weather station can show the air pressure trend. You will see the following symbols on the display:

• The air pressure is rising.
• The air pressure is remaining constant
• The air pressure is falling.

Backlight
