[. . . ] Replace compartment cover. HOW TO INSTALL AND REPLACE BATTERIES IN THE TEMPERATURE TRANSMITTER 5 The temperature transmitter uses 2 x AAA, IEC LR3, 1. 5V batteries. To install and replace the batteries, please follow the steps below: 1. Replace the battery compartment cover on the unit. Note: In the event of changing batteries in any of the units, all units need to be reset by following the setting up procedures. This is because a security code is assigned by the transmitter at start-up and this code must be received and stored by the Weather station in the first 3 minutes of power being supplied to it. [. . . ] 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. However, 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 display weather forecasts in terms of getting better or worse, and not necessarily sunny or rainy as each icon indicates. For 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 setting up, readings for weather forecasts should be disregarded for the next 48 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 stagnant most of the time (for example mostly sunny). 14 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), remove the batteries and re-insert them after about 30 seconds. By doing this, the Weather Station will not mistake the new location as being a possible change in airpressure when really it is due to the slight change of altitude. The transmitter can also be position on a flat surface by securing the stand to the bottom of the transmitter. 19 To wall mount: 1. Secure the bracket onto a desired wall using the screws and plastic anchors. Note: Before permanently fixing the transmitter wall base, place all units in the desired locations to check that the outdoor temperature reading is receivable. In event that the signal is not received, relocate the transmitter or move the units slightly as this may help the signal reception. CARE AND MAINTENANCE: Extreme temperatures, vibration and shock should be avoided as these may cause damage to the unit and give inaccurate forecasts and readings. Injuries, burns, or property damage may be resulted if the batteries are in contact with conducting materials, heat, corrosive materials or explosives. The batteries shall be taken out from the unit before the product is to be stored for a long period of time. Immediately remove all low powered batteries to avoid leakage and damage.
