  • Page 21 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.
  • Page 22 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 air-pressure when really it is due to the slight change of altitude.
  • Page 23 Therefore, user may see how the weather has changed and is expected to change. For example, if the indicator is pointing downwards together with cloudy icons, it means that the last noticeable change in the weather was when it was sunny (the sunny icon only). Therefore, the next change in the weather will be the cloudy icons since the indicator is pointing downwards.
