Insert the batteries into the thermohygro transmitter. Keep the transmitter 5-10 feet from the
Weather Station during set up.
Within 45 seconds, insert batteries into the Weather Station. Once the batteries are in place
all segments will light up briefly. The time will be displayed as 12:00. If this is not displayed
within 80 seconds, remove the batteries from both units for 2 minutes and start again from
step 1.
The weather station will start receiving data from the transmitter. The outdoor temperature
and signal reception icon will be displayed. If this is not displayed within 80 seconds,
remove the batteries from both units for 2 minutes and start again from step 1.
Allow the weather station and the transmitter to remain 5-10 feet apart for 15 minutes after
set up to establish a strong connection.
To ensure sufficient 915 MHz transmission after set up, the distance between the
transmitter mounted outside and the weather station inside should not exceed 330 feet
(100 meters) distance (open air, no obstructions).
Pressure number display: Press and release the SET button to switch from Relative Pressure
(rel) to Absolute Pressure reading (abs).

please follow the steps below:

3. Replace the compartment cover.
For every sudden or significant change in the air pressure, the weather icons will update
accordingly to represent the change in weather. The icons displayed forecasts the weather in
terms of getting better or worse and not necessarily sunny or rainy as each icon indicates. For
example, if the current weather is cloudy and the rainy icon is displayed, it does not mean that the
product is faulty because it is not raining. It simply means that the air pressure has dropped and
the weather is expected to get worse but not necessarily rainy.
Note: After set up, readings for weather forecasts should be disregarded for the next 48 hours.
This will allow sufficient time for the Weather station to collect air pressure data at a constant
altitude and therefore result in a more accurate forecast.

and the weather is expected to improve, but when arrow points downwards, the air pressure is
dropping and the weather is expected to become worse.
