Setting Time Zone and Daylight Savings
1. If starting from the normal mode, press SET 10 times.
2. The time zone will flash based on the city selected. Press + or - keys to adjust
to the correct time zone.
3. Press SET to advance to the Daylight Saving Time setting. "dst ON" will flash.
Press + or - to select whether or not the Weather Center will automatically
change when Daylight Saving Time changes. Press SET to advance to the units

settings.

Setting Weather Measurement Units (°F/°C, inHg/hPa)
1. If starting from the normal mode, press SET 12 times.
2. Selected temperature units will flash (°F default). Press + key to select °F
(Fahrenheit) or °C (Celsius).
3. Press SET to advance to the barometric air pressure units setting. The selected
air pressure units will flash (inHg default). Press + key to select inHg (inches of
mercury) or hPa (hectopascal or millibars).
4. Press SET to advance to the barometric air pressure calibration setting. The air
pressure reading will flash (29.91 inHg, 1012.8 hPa as default). Press + or - to
adjust to the correct relative air pressure based on local reports. (Note:
Barometric air pressure is usually reported as "relative air pressure.") This read-
ing is based on the combination of absolute air pressure and altitude. In gener-
al, an increase in altitude will result in a decrease in air pressure. Relative air
pressure will make readings in nearby locations relative to each other to allow
for proper forecasting. The absolute air pressure reading in the Weather Center
cannot be calibrated — only the relative air pressure.)
5. Press SET to advance to the forecast sensitivity setting. The selected forecast
sensitivity setting will flash (0.09 inHg default). Press + to select 0.06, 0.09 or
0.12 inHg (if hPa is selected, the choices will be 2, 3 or 4). A lower setting will
result in a quicker change in the forecast icon. In other words, if the setting is
0.06 inHg, the forecast icon will change if the air pressure changes by at least
0.06 inHg within a six-hour period. This is useful, as certain areas will experi-
ence a change of air pressure but no change in weather.
6. Press SET to advance to the storm warning setting. The selected storm warning
level will flash (0.15 inHg, 5 hPa default). Press + or - to select the storm
warning setting. This can be set to 0.09, 0.12, 0.15, 0.18, 0.21, 0.24 or 0.27
inHg (from 3 to 9 hPa). This setting will determine how much of a drop in air
pressure over six hours will sound the storm warning alarm.
