THE COMFORT LEVEL INDICATOR:

Comfortable : A happy face icon “” indicates a temperature between 68ºF and 78.6ºF (20°C and 25.9°C) and relative humidity reading between 45% and 65%.

Uncomfortable : A sad face icon “” indicates any value outside the comfortable range.

WEATHER FORECAST AND WEATHER TENDENCY: WEATHER FORECASTING ICONS:

Weather icons in the third section of LCD can be displayed in any of the following combinations:

FORECAST FORECAST FORECAST

Sunny Cloudy with sunny intervals Rainy

For every sudden or significant change in the air pressure, the weather icons will update accordingly to represent the change in weather. If the icons do not change, then it means either the air pressure has not changed or the change has been too slow for the Weather station to register. If the icon displayed is a sun or raining cloud, there will be no change of icon if the weather gets any better (with sunny icon) or worse (with rainy icon), since the icons are already at their extremes.

The icons displayed forecast the weather in terms of getting better or worse and not necessarily sunny or rainy as each icon indicates. For

TOGGLING AND RESETTING THE INDOOR READINGS:

1.To toggle between the current indoor and the MAX/MIN indoor temperature, and the humidity data and the times (for temperature data only) they were recorded, press the IN key:

-Once to show the MAX indoor temperature and humidity data with the recorded time and date.

-Twice to show the MIN indoor temperature and humidity data with the recorded time and date.

-Three times to return to the current displayed values

2.Once the MIN or MAX data is displayed, press and hold the SET key for 3 seconds to reset the respective MIN or MAX record to current temperature and humidity data, and current time, date display.

Note: The MIN or MAX data needs to be reset individually.

example, if the current weather is cloudy and the rainy icon is displayed, it does not mean that the product is faulty because it is not raining. It simply means that the air pressure has dropped and the weather is expected to get worse but not necessarily rainy.

Note: After setup, readings for weather forecasts should be disregarded for the next 48-60 hours. This will allow sufficient time for the Weather station to collect air pressure data at a constant altitude and therefore result in a more accurate forecast.

Common to weather forecasting, absolute accuracy cannot be guaranteed. The weather forecasting feature is estimated to have an accuracy level of about 75% due to the varying areas the Weather station has been designed for use in. In areas that experience sudden changes in weather (for example from sunny to rain), the Weather station will be more accurate compared to use in areas where the weather is constant most of the time (for example mostly sunny).

If the Weather station is moved to another location significantly higher or lower than its initial standing point (for example from the ground floor to the upper floors of a house), discard the weather forecast for the next 48- 60 hours. By doing this, the Weather Station will not mistake the new
