Techno Line WS 9132 - Weather Station Manual

Environmental reception effects

The station obtains the accurate time with wireless technology. Same as all wireless devices, the reception is maybe affected by the following circumstances:

• long transmitting distance
• nearby mountains and valleys
• near freeway, railway, airports, high voltage cable etc.
• near construction site
• among tall buildings
• inside concrete buildings
• near electrical appliances (computers, TV's, etc) and metallic structures
• inside moving vehicles

Place the station at a location with optimal signal, i.e. close to a window and away from metal surfaces or electrical appliances.

Precautions

• This main unit is intended to be used only indoors.
• Do not subject the unit to excessive force or shock.
• Do not expose the unit to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, dust or humidity.
• Do not immerse in water.
• Avoid contact with any corrosive materials.
• Do not dispose this unit in a fire as it may explode.
• Do not open the inner back case or tamper with any components of this unit.

Batteries safety warnings

• Use only alkaline batteries, not rechargeable batteries.
• Install batteries correctly by matching the polarities (+/-).
• Always replace a complete set of batteries.
• Never mix used and new batteries.
• Remove exhausted batteries immediately.
• Remove batteries when not in use.
• Do not recharge and do not dispose of batteries in fire as the batteries may explode.
• Ensure batteries are stored away from metal objects as contact may cause a short circuit.
• Avoid exposing batteries to extreme temperature or humidity or direct sunlight.
• Keep all batteries out of reach from children. They are a choking hazard.

Use the product only for its intended purpose!

Consideration of duty according to the battery law

Old batteries do not belong to domestic waste because they could cause damages of health and environment. You can return used batteries free of charge to your dealer and collection points. As end-user you are committed by law to bring back needed batteries to distributors and other collecting points!

Consideration of duty according to the law of electrical devices

This symbol means that you must dispose of electrical devices separated from the General household waste when it reaches the end of its useful life. Take your unit to your local waste collection point or recycling centre. This applies to all countries of the European Union, and to other European countries with a separate waste collection system.

Hereby, Technotrade declares that this product WS 9132 is in compliance with the essential requirements and other relevant provisions of Directive 2014/53/EU and ROHS 2011/65/EC. The original EU declaration of conformity may be found at: www.technoline.de/doc/4029665091327

Initial operation

• Open the Weather Station battery compartment cover
• Insert 2 x AAA batteries observing polarity [ "+" and " –" marks]
• When you insert the batteries, all icons on the LCD display will light up for 3 seconds, you will hear a beep tone and the station detects indoor temperature & humidity.
• The Weather Station will now start to make a connection to the outdoor remote sensor.
  This operation takes about 3 minutes and is displayed by a flashing reception RF antenna symbol in the "OUTDOOR" display area on the receiver.
• Open Wireless Outdoor Sensor battery compartment cover, Insert 2 x AA batteries observing polarity [ "+" and "–" marks]. After receiver has created a connection to the outdoor remote sensor,
• After 3 minutes it will enter the Radio control time receive mode.

Reception of the DCF signal

Please note:

• A flashing radio mast icon indicates that the DCF signal reception has started

• A continuously displayed radio mast icon indicates that the DCF signal was received successfully
• We recommend a minimum distance of 2.5 meters to all sources of interference, such as televisions or computer monitors
• Radio reception is weaker in rooms with concrete walls (e.g.: in cellars) and in offices. In such extreme circumstances, place the system close to the window.
• During the DCF reception mode, only the " " button has a function, other buttons are not functional, If you want to carry out other functions of operation, please press" " button to exit the DCF receiving mode.

Manual settings
