[. . . ] The transmission is within range and path is clear of obstacles and interference. l) Transmission Collision Signals from other household devices, such as door bells, home security systems and entry controls, may interfere with those of this product and cause temporarily reception failure. This is normal and does not affect the general performance of the product. The transmission and reception of temperature readings will resume once the interference recedes. m) Heat Index The heat index is based on the temperature and humidity measurements of the channel 1 sensor. The heat index is an index that combines air temperature and dew point in an attempt to determine the human-perceived equivalent temperature -- how hot it feels, termed the "felt air temperature". The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, or sweating, which evaporates and carries heat away from the body. However, when the relative humidity is high the evaporation rate is reduced, so heat is removed from the body at a lower rate causing it to retain more heat than it would in dry air. Measurements have been taken based on subjective descriptions of how hot subjects feel for a given temperature and humidity, allowing an index to be made which corresponds a temperature and humidity combination to a higher temperature in dry air. The heat index contains average assumptions about the human body mass and height, clothing, and the wind speed. Category normal caution Heat Index (°C) < 27°C 27 ­ 32°C Level 7. CLOCK AND ALARM MODE Important: All operations described in here are to be made in the clock mode Accessing Clock and Alarm Mode From the main console unit: Press + or - until the clock icon beside the time/date display starts flashing. The clock will search the radio signal automatically (DCF77 from Germany). If you wish to disable the auto-reception feature, hold "+" for 2 seconds to disable it. To enable the auto-reception feature again, hold "+" for 2 seconds again to start the reception and the regular synchronisations. If the radio signal is received, the date & time will be set automatically and the radio control signal icon [ ] turns on. If the clock fails to receive the time signal, it will show the [ ] icon. HOW TO SET THE CLOCK MANUALLY To set the clock manually, hold "SET" for 2 seconds. You may choose among English (ENG), German (GER), French (FRE), Italian (ITA), Spanish (SPA) and Dutch (DUT). Repeat the same procedure to set your nearest city (default is "Frankfurt", see belwo for more details), year, month, date, date-month format, 12/24 hour format, hour and minute. During the setting, press and hold "+" or "-" will increase or decrease the value rapidly. 21 If there is an item you do not wish to change, simply press "SET" to bypass the item. Details about the time setting mode (in "city code" section) 1. In the city setting, you may chose any of the preset locations (see the list in the Appendix). [. . . ] Note: For weekday alarm, pressing ALARM/CHART will only disable the alarm for the current day. The alarm will be activated again the next day (if it falls within Monday to Friday). 7. 3 Understanding the Moon Phase Diagram New Moon Waxing Crescent First Quarter Waxing Gibbous 8.
