Care & Maintenance

Display Unit Care

Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use caustic cleaners or abrasives. Keep away from dust, dirt and moisture. Clean ventilation ports regularly with a gentle puff of air.

5-in-1 Sensor Care

Clean the Sensor

Clean with a soft damp cloth. Do not use caustic cleaners or abrasives that will mar the polished surfaces of the rain collection funnel or the solar cell. Scratches will result in decreased performance and reliability.

Insect Prevention

Insects may cause obstructions and interrupt data by nesting in or on the 5-in-1 sensor. To limit this problem, spray sensor with a household insect repellent. Consult the insect repellent instructions prior to use.

Snow & Freezing Weather

The 5-in-1 sensor will not be damaged by freezing conditions. NOTE: If the rain collec- tor cup fills with snow and then melts, it will register as rain on the display unit.

Clean the Rain Collector Cup

Remove and empty rain collector debris filter. The debris filter is located in the rain col- lector funnel. Remove from the top by gently squeezing and pulling out.

Clean the Wind Vane & Anemometer

Remove foreign matter from the outside of the sensor for free movement of the wind vane and anemometer. If needed, use a small amount of spray lubricant, clear silicone or graphite powder on the anemometer for improved movement.

Calibration

Calibrate Temperature & Humidity

The indoor / outdoor temperature and humidity readings can be calibrated on the display unit to improve accuracy. Calibration improves accuracy when 5-in-1 sensor placement or environmental factors impact your data accuracy.

1.Choose the weather category you wish to calibrate by pressing the “▲” or “▼” buttons until the category is displayed on the Selectable Category part of the display unit.

2.Press AND HOLD the “▲” or “▼” buttons and the “SET” button all at the same time for 15-20 seconds.
