• Retroilluminazione per una facile lettura in condizioni di scarsa illuminazione.
• Integrated calendar displaying day of the week in 7 languages.

3. Impostazione

3.1 Installazione della batteria

The weather station and outdoor sensor are battery-powered, allowing for flexible placement. Batteries are not included.

1. Aprire il vano batterie sul retro dell'unità principale.
2. Inserire 4 batterie AAA, osservando la corretta polarità (+/-).
3. Chiudere il vano batterie.
4. Repeat steps 1-3 for the outdoor sensor.

Nota: Ensure fresh batteries are used for optimal performance. High battery consumption may require replacement approximately every 6 months.

3.2 Sincronizzazione iniziale

After battery installation, the main unit will automatically attempt to synchronize with the outdoor sensor and receive the DCF77 radio signal for time setting.

• Place the outdoor sensor within range of the main unit (ensure no major obstructions).
• The main unit will display outdoor temperature once synchronized. If synchronization fails, reposition the outdoor sensor or restart both devices by removing and reinserting batteries.
• The radio-controlled time signal (DCF77) will automatically set the correct time, including summer and winter time adjustments. This process may take several minutes.

3.3 Impostazione manuale dell'ora

If the radio signal is unavailable (e.g., in areas with poor reception), the time can be set manually.

• Refer to the detailed instructions in the operating section for manual time and date adjustments.

4. Istruzioni per l'uso

• A happy face indicates ideal indoor temperature and humidity levels (typically 20-28°C and 40-70% humidity).
• Other icons may indicate dry or wet conditions, prompting adjustments for a healthier environment.

4.6 Previsioni del tempo

The weather station provides a visual weather forecast based on measured values. This is displayed using symbols in the upper-middle section of the screen.

• Symbols typically include sun, clouds, rain, etc., indicating general weather trends.
• This forecast is based on atmospheric pressure changes detected by the unit and serves as an indication, not a substitute for professional weather reports.

4.7 Visualizzazione della temperatura e dell'umidità

• Temperatura interna: Displays the current temperature inside the room.
• Temperatura esterna: Displays the current temperature transmitted from the outdoor sensor.
• Umidità interna: Mostra la percentualetage of humidity indoors.
• Temperature can be switched between Celsius (°C) and Fahrenheit (°F) using a dedicated button (often located in the battery compartment or a small button on the back).

5. Manutenzione

• Sostituzione della batteria: Replace all 4x AAA batteries in both the main unit and the outdoor sensor when the display dims or performance degrades. It is recommended to replace batteries in both units simultaneously for optimal synchronization.
• Pulizia: Pulire il dispositivo con un panno morbido e asciutto. Non utilizzare detergenti abrasivi o solventi.
• Posizionamento: Ensure the outdoor sensor is protected from direct rain and sunlight for accurate readings and extended lifespan.

6. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

• Nessuna lettura della temperatura esterna:
  - Check batteries in the outdoor sensor.
