Note: After initial set up, allow 48-60 hours for your Wireless Weather Station to
acclimate to the local pressure.
For every sudden or significant change in the air pressure, the weather icons will update
accordingly to represent the change in weather. 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 wireless
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 displayed forecasts the weather 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.

SNOOZE SETTING AND STOPPING THE ALARM:
The snooze function can be activated when the alarm is ringing by pressing the SNOOZE
key. However the snooze will only be activated when the snooze time is set other than
OFF in snooze setting.
When the alarm is snoozing, the alarm icon will start flashing indicating that the alarm is
active but is in Snooze mode. To stop the snooze function when it is in snooze period,
press and release any of the SET, MIN/MAX, or CH/+ keys.

WEATHER FORECAST ICONS:

The weather forecast can be displayed as follow:
Note:
After setting up, readings for weather forecasts should be disregarded for the next 48-60
hours. This will allow sufficient time for the wireless 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 wireless weather station has been designed for use. In areas that
experience sudden changes in weather (for example from sunny to rain), the wireless
weather station will be more accurate compared to use in areas where the weather is
stagnant most of the time (for example mostly sunny).
If the wireless 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), discard the weather forecast for the next 48-60 hours. By doing this, the wireless
weather station will not mistake the new location as being a possible change in air-
pressure when really it is due to the slight change of altitude.
WEATHER TENDENCY INDICATORS
Working together with the weather icons is the weather tendency indicators (located on
the right side of the weather icons). When the indicator points upwards, it means that the
air-pressure is increasing and the weather is expected to improve, but when indicator
points downwards, the air-pressure is dropping and the weather is expected to become
worse.
