Placement for Maximum Accuracy
AcuRite sensors are sensitive to surrounding environmental conditions. Proper placement of both the display and the outdoor sensor are critical to the accuracy and performance of this product.
Display Placement
Place the display in a dry area free of dirt and dust. Display stands upright for tabletop use or is wall-mountable.
Outdoor Device Placement
For optimal performance and the most accurate readings, follow theinstructions included with the AcuRite Iris® (5-in-1).

Important Placement Guidelines

  • To ensure accurate temperature measurement, place units out of direct sunlight and away from any heat sources or vents.
  • Display and outdoor sensor must be within 330 ft (100 m) of each other.
  • To maximize wireless range, place units away from large metallic items, thick walls, metal surfaces, or other objects that may limit wireless communication.
  • To prevent wireless interference, place both units at least 3 ft (90 cm) away from electronic devices (TV, computer, microwave, radio, etc.).

Setup is Complete
The sensor will now synchronize with the display. It may take a few minutes for synchronization to complete. Please refer to the troubleshooting section of this manual if anything appears to be functioning improperly.

OPERATION

Using the AcuRite Iris ® Nano Display Understanding Rainfall
Rainfall accumulation is shown as the total from the last (rolling) 24 hours.

AUTO-FOCUS Mode
When AUTO-FOCUS mode is enabled, the display will automatically show the most relevant weather reading based on current conditions. This feature uses an internal memory of normal weather ranges for temperature, rain, and wind. If any of the current weather readings fall below or raise above the factory-set extremes, AUTO-FOCUS mode will then automatically switch to the affected weather category.
To see a different reading temporarily, press and release the “DISPLAY SELECT” button at any time. Enable or disable AUTO-FOCUS mode by pressing and holding the “DISPLAY SELECT” button for 5 seconds.

Care & Maintenance

The units must be within 330 ft (100 m) of each other.

•   Make sure both units are placed at least 3 feet (.9 m) away from electronics that may interfere with the wireless communication (such as TVs, microwaves, computers, etc.).

•   Use standard alkaline batteries (or lithium batteries in sensor when the temperature is below -4˚F/-20˚C). Do not use heavy-duty or rechargeable batteries. NOTE: It may take a few minutes for the display and sensor to synchronize after the batteries are replaced.

Outdoor temperature is flashing or

showing dashes
