In purchasing the weather station, you have acquired a product which has been designed to the state of the art and
is operationally reliable. Nevertheless, problems and faults might occur. Therefore, we would like to describe here
how to eliminate possible faults:
Take note of all the safety instructions in these operating instructions!

Solution
• The distance between weather station and outdoor sensors is too large.
Change the installation site of the outdoor sensors.
• Carry out a manual sensor search.
• Objects or shielding materials interfere with radio reception. The same
applies to other electronic devices, e.g. televisions or computers. Change
the installation site of outdoor sensors and weather station.
• The batteries of the outdoor sensors are weak or empty. Insert new
batteries into the outdoor sensors.
• A different transmitter on the same or an adjacent frequency interferes
with the radio signal of the outdoor sensors. This might be e.g. radio-
controlled headphones, radio-controlled speakers or similar devices.
Such products are usually not in use all the time; the radio reception may
be faultless the next day, for example, which makes a search for the
cause more difficult.
• Change the location of the weather station. Maintain an appropriate
distance from electrical devices, pieces of metal and cables. Do not
operate the weather station in a cellar.
• Wait 24 hours, the reception is generally better at night than during the
day.
• Set the time manually.
• Switch the DCF reception off and then on again.
