3. Getting started
3.1 Insert battery
Open the battery compartment of the transmitter (screwed) and the display unit and place both
instruments on a desk with a distance of approximately 1.5 meter. Check that no other electronic
devices are close.
Insert the batteries (2 x 1.5 V AA) first into the battery compartment of the transmitter and imme-
diately afterwards in the display unit (2 x 1.5 V AA), observing the correct polarity.
3.2 Reception of time
The time and date appear within a few minutes.

3.3 Reception of outdoor temperature
After the reception of time the display unit automatically starts scanning the signal of the trans-
mitter and the reception signal is flashing
perature display.
If the reception of outdoor values fails, "
try it again. Check if there is any source of interference.
Manual initialization can be helpful. Press [ IN/OUT ] button for 3 seconds, until the reception
signal is flashing
. Press "RESET" button in the battery compartment of the transmitter with a
pointed object to transmit outdoor values to the main unit manually e.g. for testing or when the
transmitter signal got lost.
The signal
appears when the signal is received successfully.
3.4 Reception of weather data
The transfer of larger quantities of data for the forecast takes much longer: In order to receive all
data, the station requires 24 hours after start-up.

3.5 Choosing the installation location
Similar to a mobile telephone network or radio/TV reception, the reception of the radio-time receiver
may not be perfect in all locations. Just a couple of notes to make sure that your device works with
no problems.
3.5.1 Reception test
The location of the weather station is very important. This is the reason for the new test function
that allows the quality of reception to be checked in the surrounding area and to position the
device in a location that has the best possible conditions.
Switch on all potential sources of interference (e.g. television) in the area where you want to
install the station during the test!
Position the device in the location, oriented as you prefer, but at least one meter from the possible
source of interference.
Press the [ TEST √ ] button to activate the test for the reception of weather data. The text
shown on the display. The reception indicator for the weather data shows the quality of reception.

The reception test is either ended after approx. 1 minute automatically or by actuating the [ TEST √ ]

3.5.2 Possible sources of interference
Interferences as with a radio transmitter can occur and could be caused by the following influences:
In buildings with a lot of concrete, metal parts and electrical systems, reception problems can occur
(e.g. malls).
Electrical devices such as television, computer, house-hold devices, etc. or transformers, land lines,
radio transmitters and railways are possible direct sources of interference.
Atmospheric influences and geographical features (mountains, etc.) can affect the propagation of
the radio waves.
The distance from the transmitter does also influence the reception. Areas such as Southern Italy or
Northern Scandinavia are also critical areas because of the great distances from the transmitter.
In all regions, so-called "dead spots" can occur making reception impossible.
Weak batteries in the device decrease the quality of reception.
3.6 Set time zone, language and contrast
After installing the batteries the weather station is searching automatically for the time signal and
