USE
DISPLAY CONSOLE MAINTENANCE:
Clean with a soft damp cloth, do not use caustic cleaners or
abrasives as these will damage the finish on the display console.
Keep away from dust and dirt and moisture, dust ventilation ports
regularly with a gentle puff of air, this will keep the indoor
temperature and humidity accurate.
INTEGRATED WIRELESS SENSOR MAINTENANCE:
Clean the housing with a damp cloth, do not use abrasive cleaners
or any materials that will mar the polished surfaces of the rain
collection funnel or the solar panel- this will result in decreased
performance and reliability.
Occasionally remove the rain collector screen cup and empty it. This
will filter out seeds and small sticks, etc. (the rain collector screen cup
is located within the rain funnel- remove from the top gently by
squeezing and pulling out).
Remove any foreign matter on the outside of the housing to allow for
free movement of wind vane and anemometer.
INSECTS: in most cases, insects will not pose a problem. However, in
some instances, insects may cause repeated obstructions to weather
measurement by nesting in or contaminating the integrated wireless
sensor. In these cases, it may help to spray the housing with a
commercially available home insect guard/repellent product (not
included) to limit the problem. Please consult the insect repellent
manufacturers instructions and safety information before using.
BATTERY SAFETY: Clean the battery contacts and also those of the device prior to
battery installation. Remove batteries from equipment which is not to be used for an
extended period of time. Follow the polarity (+/-) diagram in the battery
compartment. Promptly remove dead batteries from the device. Dispose of used
batteries properly. Only batteries of the same or equivalent type as recommended
are to be used. DO NOT incinerate used batteries. DO NOT dispose of batteries in
fire, as batteries may explode or leak. DO NOT mix old and new batteries or types
of batteries (alkaline/standard). DO NOT use rechargeable batteries. DO NOT
recharge non-rechargeable batteries. DO NOT short-circuit the supply terminals.
