Introduction 

Thank  you  for  your  purchase  of  the  Ambient  Weather  WS-YG710S  Cherry  Finish  Brass  Dial 
Traditional  Weather  Station.  The  following  is  a  guide  for  preparation,  care  and  operation  of  your 
traditional weather station.

Preparation 

 
Your  weather  instrument  includes  a  protective  pad  to  prevent  damage  to  the  barometer  glass  case 
during shipment. Remove this protective pad and circular instruction sheet.    The barometer is ready 
to use.

Care and Cleaning 

The  solid  wood  case  is  finished  with  a  clear,  satin  lacquer  to  protect  and  preserve  the  appearance. 
Although  occasional  use  of  a  good  furniture  polish  is  acceptable,  we  recommend  periodic  cleaning 
with a very lightly water dampened soft cloth.    Be sure to wipe the wood dry with a soft cloth before 
cleaning. 
 
Avoid use of harsh household cleaners and coarse paper towels, which can damage the lacquer coating 
or  scratch the bezel  or lens.  Fingerprints and dirt  may be removed the lenses and bezels with a soft 
cloth lightly dampened with a mixture of water and mild dishwashing liquid.    Be sure to dry the lens 
and bezel with a soft cloth after cleaning. 
 
Do not install the weather station outside. The weather station is intended for indoor use only.

Hygrometer (Humidity Meter) 

 

 

4.1

 

How the hygrometer works 

The  hygrometer  measures  the  indoor  relative  humidity.    The  sensor  measures  the air  moisture  by  a 
sensitive mechanical coil spring that is bonded with a moisture absorbent material. 
 
Hygrometers  register  the  percentage  of  water  vapor  present  in  the  air,  compared  to  the  maximum 
amount that can be present at a given temperature.
