SETUP Sensor Setup 1 Set the A-B-C Switch conditions. Cold temperatures can cause alkaline batteries to function improperly. Use lithium batteries in the sensor for temperatures below -4ºF / -20ºC . The A-B-C switch is located inside the battery compartment. It can be set to A, B or C. However, you must select the same letter choices for both the sensor and the display in order for the units to synchronize. 1. S lide off the battery compartment cover.

Placement for Maximum Accuracy AcuRite sensors are sensitive to surrounding environmental conditions. Proper placement of both the display and the outdoor sensor are critical to the accuracy and performance of this product. Display Placement Place the display in a dry area free of dirt and dust. Display stands upright for tabletop use or is wall-mountable. Outdoor Sensor Placement Sensor must be placed outside to observe outdoor conditions.

OPERATION Using the Weather Station Learning Mode Self-calibrating forecasting uses a unique algorithm to analyze changes in pressure over a time period (called Learning Mode) to determine your altitude. After 14 days, the Learning Mode icon disappears from the display screen. At this point, the self-calibrated pressure is tuned in to your location and the unit is ready for superior weather prediction.

Troubleshooting Problem No outdoor sensor reception no bars Possible Solution If the wireless signal indicator shows no bars: •R elocate the display and/or the outdoor sensor. The units must be within 330 ft (100 m) of each other. •M ake sure both units are placed at least 3 feet (.9 m) away from electronics that may interfere with the wireless communication (such as TVs, microwaves, computers, etc.).
