  The SUNNY icon indicates clear weather, even when displayed during the night-time.The icons 

displayed forecast the weather in 

terms of getting better or worse, and not necessarily sunny or rainy

 

as each icon indicates.  

Note:

 After initial set-up, disregards icons for weather forecasts for the next 48-60 hours. This will allow 

sufficient time for the weather station to collect air pressure data at a constant altitude and result in a 
more accurate forecast.

NOTE: Hold the arrow button in to change the value faster.

  Press the ALARM button once. 

 

Storm Alarm:

bottom of the display.  

  Press and release the SET button 13 more times and your will see a down arrow and a number from 

0.09 to 0.27 flashing. This is the sensitivity, (how many hPa the pressure falls before an alarm 
sounds). Use the ARROW buttons to select the setting desired.  

  Press and release the SET button and AOFF or AON will show. Use the ARROW button to turn the 

alarm on (AON) or off (AOFF). Release all buttons and allow the display to come back to a normal 
display. This will take about 15 seconds. 
 

Weather station has missing segments 

 

  This is generally a power related issue.  

 

Batteries

 may be overpowered or underpowered. Remove batteries from weather station.  

  Press any button 20 times. Leave the weather station unpowered for 1-2 hours.  

  Install fresh Alkaline batteries with correct polarity.  

  Describe the portions of letters or numbers missing. 

 
 Weather station is dim 

 

  Most weather stations have a gray background. Place the weather station at eye level. Is it still dim? 

  Weather stations that sit in the sunlight can develop a cloudy film over time.
