7. Notes on batteries and rechargeable batteries


In principle, it is possible to operate the weather station and the outdoor sensors with rechargeable
batteries.
However, the lower voltage of rechargeable batteries (rechargeable battery = 1.2V, battery = 1.5V) and
their lesser capacity reduces the operating time and the radio range. Rechargeable batteries are also
more sensitive to temperature than normal batteries
Therefore, we recommend that you use high-quality alkaline batteries to ensure long and safe
operation.
Required batteries:
Weather station: 4 batteries type AA/mignon
Outdoor temperature/air humidity sensor: 2 batteries type AA/mignon
Wind sensor: 2 batteries type AA/mignon
Rain sensor: 2 batteries type AA/mignon
Please note:
• Batteries must be kept out of the reach of children.
• Please observe the correct polarity (positive/+ and negative/-) when inserting the batteries.
• Do not let batteries/rechargeable batteries lie around openly. There is a risk of batteries being swallowed by
children or pets. If swallowed, consult a doctor immediately.
• Leaking or damaged batteries/rechargeable batteries may cause acid burns when coming into contact with skin,
therefore use suitable protective gloves.
• Make sure that batteries/rechargeable batteries are not short-circuited, dismantled or thrown into fire. There is a
risk of explosion!
• Do not recharge normal batteries. There is a risk of explosion! Only charge rechargeable batteries which are
intended for this purpose; use a suitable battery charger.
• In the case of disuse for a longer period of time (e.g. storage), remove the inserted batteries/rechargeable batteries.
Old batteries/rechargeable batteries can leak and cause damages on the product; loss of guarantee/warranty!
• Always exchange the entire set of batteries/accumulators, only use batteries/accumulators of the same type and
by the same manufacturer with the same charge status (do not mix full with semi-full or empty batteries/
accumulators).
• Never mix batteries with accumulators! Use either batteries or accumulators.
• For the environmentally friendly disposal of batteries and rechargeable batteries, please read the chapter
"Disposal".
