A. Weather Icons

There are 3 possible weather icons that will be displayed in the

FORECAST LCD:

Sunny—indicates that the weather is expected to improve (not that the weather will be sunny).

Sun with Clouds—indicates that the weather is expected to be fair (not that the weather will be sunny with clouds).

Clouds with Rain—indicates that the weather is expected to get worse (not that the weather will be rainy).

The weather icons change when the unit detects a change in air pressure. The icons change in order from “sunny” to “partly sunny” to “cloudy” or the reverse. It will not change from “sunny” directly to “rainy”, although it is possible for the change to occur quickly. If the symbols do not change then the weather has not changed, or the change has been slow and gradual.

B.Weather Tendency Arrows

1.Other possible displays in the FORECAST LCD are 2 weather tendency arrows one that points up (above the forecast icon) and one that points down (below the forecast icon).

2.These arrows reflect current changes in the air pressure.

3.An arrow pointing up indicates that the air pressure is increasing and the weather is expected to improve or remain good.

4.An arrow pointing down indicates that the air pressure is decreasing and the weather is expected to become worse or remain poor.

5.No arrow means the pressure is stable.
