16. Maintenance and Cleaning
Servicing or repair must only be carried out by a specialist or specialist workshop. There are no parts that require
maintenance by you inside the product. Therefore, never open it (except for the procedure described in these
operating instructions for inserting or replacing the batteries).
A dry, soft and clean cloth is sufficient for cleaning the outside of the weather station.
Do not press on the display too strongly; this may lead to scratches or malfunctions of the display, or even
to the display breaking.
Dust on the weather station can be removed easily with a long-haired soft and clean brush and a vacuum cleaner.
To remove contamination at the outdoor sensor, use a soft cloth slightly moistened with lukewarm water.
Never use any aggressive cleaning agents, cleaning alcohol or other chemical solutions, since these may
damage the casing or even impair function.
17. Disposal
a) General Information
Electrical and electronic products must not be disposed of in domestic waste. Dispose of the product
