• The time and date are displayed within a few minutes. However,
receiving the very large amounts of data with the forecast for all
regions and days requires up to 24 hours from the initial start-up
until all data is received.
• After successful reception of the time and date signal, the
display shows FRM (Frankfurt am Main) as the location for the
info window. For information on changing the country and
location, see below.
• If the device has successfully received the Meteotime signal,

Note - faulty transmission of the measured
values
• In some cases, interference caused by a WiFi network,
computer, TV, etc., for example, may cause the transmission
of measured values between the base station and the outdoor
sensor to fail.
• If this happens, resynchronise the stations by brie y removing
the batteries from both stations and reinserting them.
• If the measured values are not transmitted again, replace the
batteries with new ones.
• If necessary, choose a new location for the base station to
avoid the possible interference signals in the future.

You can use the TEST function to search for a better location.

Take the device in your hand to nd a suitable location. Press the
TEST button (D) to check the quality of the Meteotime signal/DCF
signal. The signal strength is displayed as a value from T-1 (very
poor) to T-9 (very good). The TEST takes about one minute. You can
restart or stop the test at any time by pressing the TEST button.
If no signal is received on a repeated basis, press and hold the
DOWN button (F) for around 3 seconds to start the manual search
for the DCF signal. The radio signal (2) starts to ash.
Note - Setting the time
• The search process takes about 5 minutes. If this fails, the search
is terminated and repeated at the top of the next hour. The radio
symbol (2) disappears.
• Meanwhile, you can make a manual setting of the time and date.
• The clock automatically continues to search for the DCF signal
daily. Once the signal is received successfully, the manually set
time and date are overwritten.
Press and hold the DOWN button (F) again for around 3 seconds to
end the manual search process.
Note - Summertime
The time adjusts automatically to summertime. While summertime is
active, DST (1) appears on the display.
6.2 Connection to the outdoor sensor
• After the batteries are inserted, the base station automatically
searches for a connection to the outdoor sensor and carries out
the initial setup routine.
Note
• Initial setup takes around 3 minutes.
• During the connection attempt, the radio signal (2) on the
base station (22) ashes.
• Avoid any operation of the buttons during this time!
Otherwise, errors and inaccuracies may occur in the values
and their transmission.
• The process is nished as soon as the indoor and outdoor
measurement data (23/27/34/36) are displayed.
• If no signal is received from the outdoor sensor on a repeated
basis, press and hold the CHANNEL button (B) for around 3
seconds to start the manual search for the signal.
6.3 Channel selection / Additional outdoor sensors
Note
• You can install two further outdoor sensors in addition to the
outdoor sensor supplied. When doing so, ensure the same
channel setting on the base station and each outdoor sensor.
• Suitable outdoor sensors can be found at www.hama.com
