BACKLIGHT: DOES THIS STATION HAVE A BACKLIGHT?
A/C adapter: The backlight is on continuously when operating the station with the 5-volt
a/c adapter.
Note: When the Adapter is NOT in use, the Hi/Low/Off light feature is not available.
Try this exercise in a dim room. The station has a bright, dim and OFF setting for the
backlight. Wait 15 seconds after pressing the LIGHT button to see if backlight stays on.
This will assure it is not in OFF mode.

WHY ARE MY FORECAST ICONS INACCURATE?
Your station predicts weather condition of the next 12-hours based on the change of
atmospheric pressure with 70-75% accuracy.
Note: As weather conditions cannot be 100% correctly forecasted we are not responsible
for any loss caused by an incorrect forecast.
Forecast Icons:
Sunny
Partly Sunny
Cloudy
Rain
T-Storm
Snow
Note: The “snow” icon appears when the temperature is below 32°F (0°C) and the forecast
is rainy or stormy.
Your station calibrates barometric pressure based on its location over time to generate
an accurate, personal forecast. Please allow 7-10 days for barometer calibration.
The forecast station samples the barometric pressure every twelve minutes. These
samples are averaged hourly and daily then stored in nonvolatile memory. The three
hour pressure icon change is based off of the last four average hourly readings.
IMPORTANT: As your station builds memory, it will compare the current average
pressure to the past forty day average pressure for increased accuracy. The longer
your station operates in one location the more accurate the forecast icons will be.
