Remark:
Where outdoor temperature is lower than -20˚C, make sure proper
type of batteries to be used to assure that the device can get enough
power to maintain its function properly. Normal alkaline batteries is not
allow to be used since when outdoor temperature is lower than -20 ˚C,
the battery’s discharging capability is greatly reduced.
When out of the temperature range of 10~35
℃
, transmitter low battery
indicator maybe show up abnormally even you change new batteries
because the low voltage test point will rise along with the temperature
drop under 10
℃
. In this case, you don't need to change the transmitter
batteries. The low battery indicator will work normal when the
outdoor temperature rise to 10~35
℃

Maintance
1. Clean the rain gauge once every 3 months. Rotate the funnel
counter-clockwise and lift to expose the rain gauge mechanism,
and clean with a damp cloth. Remove any dirt, debris and insects. If
bug infestation is an issue, spray the array lightly with insecticide.
2.
Replace batteries every 1-2 years. If left in too long, the batteries
may leak due to environmental challenges. In harsh environments,
inspect the batteries every 3 months
3.
When replacing the batteries, apply a corrosion preventive
compound on the battery terminals.
4.
In snowy environments, spray the top of the weather station with
anti-icing silicon spray to prevent snow build up.
