8. MAINTENANCE
For easy access to the outdoor units to carry out minor maintenance or
to replace the batteries, it is advisable to place the outdoor units in an
accessible place, but still as far as possible in the wind or rain.
8.1
Rain meter:
The rain unit housing can be unclipped from the bottom center, and the
inside of the rain gauge can then be cleaned. Use a soft long-bristle
brush for this.
Clean the collection tray and remove any leaves. Place it back on
the rain gauge (note the 2 protruding tabs on the back) and press the
housing onto the rain gauge again until a mechanical "click" is heard.
See also 4.4 cleaning.
8.2
Outdoor temperature and humidity sensor:
Blow the openings of the sensor housing clean and use a long-bristle
soft brush to clean the rain slats. DO NOT use WATER but only a
damp cloth.
8.3
Wind vane and windmill scoops:
Wipe these parts with a slightly damp cloth.
Check that the bearings still rotate smoothly at the same time.
9. USE INDOOR UNIT WITH BATTERIES.
The indoor unit also runs on batteries without an adapter. This will then
run out faster than when using an adapter.
The display background will not illuminate, but when the buttons are
pressed the background lighting will come on for 5 seconds. The light
can then no longer be dimmed.
10. RECEPTION FUNCTION.
After installing the batteries and/or plugging in the power adapter
connected to the mains, the indoor unit will begin receiving signals
from the outdoor units for 5 minutes. The first to be received by the
indoor unit will be seen as the correct outdoor unit and will remember
the code of the outdoor unit. Check that it is the correct outdoor unit.
After the 5 minutes, the indoor unit will stop receiving and will only
display the value of the outdoor unit received during this process.
