Setup

Insert batteries into the outdoor sensor 40 first and then insert batteries into the weather
station 34.
Remove the protective film from the weather station and the outdoor sensor. Open the battery compartment of the
outdoor sensor 40 and insert the included batteries in the correct polarity. The LED indicator 36 will briefly light up and
the display will show the temperature. Close the battery compartment.
Open the battery compartment of the weather station 34 and insert the included batteries in the correct polarity. Close
the battery compartment. The weather symbol 1 1 1 1 blinks and the weather station receives the signal from the outdoor
sensor. This process may take several minutes to complete. If reception is successful, the selected channel 22 and the
current outdoor temperature 24 will appear. After successful reception of the signal for the outdoor sensor, the
reception of the DCF77 time signal will begin and the radio control indicator 18 will blink on the display next to the
time. All buttons except the SNOOZE / LIGHT button 12 are disabled during the reception process. If reception fails
after 10 minutes, please set the time manually. The weather station will reattempt reception at 04:00 and 05:00 and, if
reception is successful, will correct the set time.
Note: Please do not move the weather station or the sensor during the reception process.
If the reception attempt is successful, the radio control indicator 18 will appear permanently on the display and the
correct time, date, day of the week and the times of sunrise, sunset, moonrise and moonset will be set automatically.
DST will appear on the display next to the radio control indicator 18 during daylight saving time.

Time zone adjustment

If you are in a country, in which the clock displays the wrong time even though it can receive the time signal, please use
the time zone adjustment to use your weather station in a time zone other than the standard time zone (UTC+1 =
Central European Time). Set the difference in hours (- 01 for example) to the desired time zone.
In normal time display mode, press and hold the MODE
-button 11 or the +/12/24 -button 14. Press the MODE-button 15, to confirm your setting.

Restart radio reception after changing this setting. Your weather station receives the DCF77 time signal but will show the
adjusted time (1 hour less for example).
Note: Always hang or place the sensor in an upright orientation.

Reception problems

The DCF77 radio signal is transmitted from a location near Frankfurt am Main and can be received within a radius of
approximately 1500 km around Frankfurt am Main. However, there are some obstacles and sources of interference,
which may substantially hinder reception. If your weather station does not correctly receive the DCF77 radio signal,
please hang or place the weather station in a different location at your site. Please note that devices such as computers,
telephones, radios and televisions may cause electromagnetic radiation which can interfere with the DCF77 signal
reception. Other possible detriments to reception are: strong building insulation (metal building materials), nearby
mountains or atmospheric interference. It may also be necessary to replace the batteries.

Restarting radio signal reception

Manually restart the radio signal reception by pressing and holding the -/ -button 11 for 3 seconds.
