14. Maintenance and care
a) General information
Maintenance or repairs may only be carried out by qualified persons or a specialist workshop.
Improper work invalidates not only the guarantee/warrantee but also the license (CE). It also involves
the risk of a fatal electric shock.
This product does not contain any serviceable parts. Therefore, do not open it (except for those operations described
in this manual e.g. assembly, inserting or changing the batteries etc.).
Regularly check the technical safety of the product e.g. for damage of the housing.
If there is any reason to believe that safe operation has become impossible, put the device out of operation and secure
it against any unintended operation. Remove the batteries, disconnect the weather station from the mains adapter
and unplug the mains adapter from the mains socket.
It can be assumed that safe operation is no longer possible if
• the device shows visible damages,
• the device is no longer functional and
• after it was stored under unfavourable conditions for a long period of time or
• after it was exposed to extraordinary stress caused by transport.
b) Cleaning the display console
Before cleaning the display, activate the Cleaning Mode at the display console as described in chapter 11 c). When
you clean the display without using the cleaning mode, you can inadvertently trigger functions which can lead to
undesired results.
To clean the display, use only a soft, clean and dry cloth. A glasses cleaning cloth is well suited for this
purpose.
Do not use rough cloths; never use liquid cleansers! This can be aggressive on the touch-sensitive
surface of the display.
Dust can be removed using a clean, soft brush and a vacuum cleaner.
Do not press too much on the display when wiping it clean.
