The unit shows a flashing 80, meaning minus 80 metres, the lowest
available altitude setting. Using the “+” button, step upwards to
the correct value for your altitude (to the nearest 10 metres). If
your location is at or above zero metres, keep pressing the +
button to move upwards through the negative altitude values,
until zero is reached, and then if appropriate keep pressing until
the desired positive value is reached.
Please note that the unit
will not display a + or – symbol against the altitude value
you choose.

When this is set, press the “HISTORY” button.

After pressing the “HISTORY” button, the weather symbol flashes;
press the "+" button to select the weather symbol that fits the
current weather, then press the “HISTORY”

may fail, for example if it is near a computer or TV or WiFi hub or
mobile phone or similar electrical equipment, due to interference
– so keep it away from those kinds of things. Also please note in
some poor-reception areas, it can take longer, from a few
minutes to a few hours, or even until some time between 1 am
and 5 am. You can if required restart the MSF radio signal search
process by pressing the + and – buttons together,
simultaneously.
