The Snooze icon (“Zz”) between the hour and minute digits (under the colon “:”) blinks. The “Zz” icon will
continue to blink as long as the Snooze is active.

next day if the alarm is still active.
WEATHER FORECAST ICONS
The weather station will estimate weather conditions over the next 6-12 hours. These estimates are based on changes in
barometric pressure.
One of these weather icons will be display at the top of the LCD screen:
= Sunny = Partly Cloudy = Cloudy = Rainy
Notes: The weather icons indicate estimated weather fluctuations over the next 6-12 hours, not the current weather
conditions. Once the weather station is powered, the first 12 hours of data will be incorrect, as the units are still analyzing
the current weather conditions.
Please take the weather forecast from your local weather forecasting service into account as well as the forecast from
your weather station. If there are discrepancies between the information from your weather station and local weather
forecasting service, please take the advice of the forecasting service over the weather station.
BAROMETRIC PRESSURE READINGS
Absolute barometric pressure refers to the true measured air pressure at the current time and location of the weather
station. It may be expressed in either millibars (mb)/hectopascals (hPa) or inches of mercury (inHg). A rising or falling
barometric pressure reading indicates the likelihood of fair or poor weather conditions. The barometric pressure display is
located in the center of the LCD screen.
-A high or rising barometric pressure indicates fair weather conditions.
-A low or falling barometric pressure indicates poor weather conditions.
To select a Barometric Pressure Display:
1.
Press and hold the “HISTORY” button on the back of the base unit for 2 seconds. An “mb/hPa” or “inHg” icon blinks
in the Barometric Pressure Display window.
2. Press the “UP” or “DOWN” button to toggle between “mb/hPa” and “inHg”.
3. Press “HISTORY” to confirm. The barometric pressure display format is set.
Note: “mb/hPa” altitudes will be expressed in meters, while “inHg” is expressed in feet. If no buttons are pressed within
30 seconds, the unit will automatically return to Normal mode.
Barometric Pressure History
Press the “HISTORY” button on the back of the unit to see the barometric pressure readings for the past 12 hours. The
“HIST” (history) box icon indicates which hour history is displayed (1 hour ago, 2 hours ago, etc.).To return to the current
barometric pressure readings, press “HISTORY” until the hour icon is “0”.
Note:
until there are 12 hours of history readings, some history hours will show dashes.
LOW BATTERY
Base unit: replace the batteries if readings grow dim or irregular.
Remote sensor: replace the batteries if the red light on the sensor stops flashing approximately every 57 seconds, or if
transmission signals seem weak or irregular.
