Troubleshooting

Problem

Possible Solution

Outdoor 

 temperature

is flashing or   

showing dashes

Flashing of the outdoor temperature is generally an 

indication of wireless interference. 

1.  Bring both the sensor and display unit indoors and 

remove at least one battery from each.

2. Reinstall the battery in the outdoor sensor. 
3. Reinstall the battery in the display unit.
4.  Let the units sit within a couple feet of each other 

for about 20 minutes to gain a strong connection. 

Inaccurate forecast

• 

 Weather Forecast icon predicts conditions for the next 

12 to 24 hours, not current conditions.

•  Has Learning Mode icon disappeared from the 

display unit? Learning Mode must complete before 

forecast and pressure will be accurate.

•  Allow unit to run continuously for 33 days. Battery 

removal or resetting the display unit will restart 

Learning Mode. After 14 days, forecast should be 

fairly accurate, however Learning Mode calibrates for 

a total of 33 days.

Inaccurate

temperature  

or humidity

•  

Make sure both the display unit and sensor are placed 

out of direct sunlight and away from any heat sources 

or vents (see page 8).

•  Make sure both units are positioned away from 

moisture sources (see page 8).
