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.

3-in-1 Sensor Care

Clean The Sensor

Clean with a soft damp cloth. Do not use caustic cleaners or abrasives.

Insect Prevention

Insects may cause obstructions and interrupt data by nesting in or on the 3-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 3-in-1 sensor will not be damaged by freezing conditions.

Clean the Wind Anemometer

Remove foreign matter from the outside of the sensor for free movement of the wind anemometer. If needed, use a small amount of clear silicone spray lubricant 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 can improve accuracy when 3-in-1 sensor placement or environmental factors impact your data accuracy.

1.Locate the “ ”, “SET”, and “ ” buttons on the back of the display unit. Press AND HOLD all three buttons for at least 5 seconds.

2.The temperature will begin flashing, indicating it is ready to be calibrated.

3.Press the up or down arrow buttons to calibrate the data value higher or lower from the actual reading.

4.Press the “SET” button to confirm the calibration adjustment. Note: The “ ” icon remains illuminated next to calibrated values.

5.The next calibratable data will begin flashing, indicating it is ready to be calibrated. Repeat Steps 1 - 4 to calibrate additional data.

Calibrate Barometric Pressure

The Weather Center default pressure mode is “AUTO”. In auto mode, the pressure will calibrate itself over a 14 day Learning Mode. Barometric pressure can be manually calibrated:

1.Locate the “ ”, “SET”, and “ ” buttons on the back of the display unit. Press AND HOLD all three buttons for at least 5 seconds.

2.Press the “SET” button to cycle through data until the pressure value begins flashing.

3.Press the “” or “ ” button to select “MANUAL” pressure mode.

4.Press the “SET” button to confirm.

5.Press the “” or “ ” buttons to calibrate the pressure value higher or lower from the self-calibrated reading.

6.Press the “SET” button to confirm the calibration adjustment. Note: The “ ” icon remains illuminated next to the calibrated value.
