may help the signal reception.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
 Extreme temperatures, vibration and shock should be avoided as these may cause damage to the
units and give inaccurate forecasts and readings.
 When cleaning the display and casings, use a soft damp cloth only. Do not use solvents or
scouring agents as they may mark the LCD and casings.
 Do not submerge the units in water.
 Immediately remove all low powered batteries to avoid leakage and damage. Replace only with
new batteries of the recommended type.
 Do not make any repair attempts to the units. Return it to their original point of purchase for repair
by a qualified engineer. Opening and tampering with the units may invalidate their guarantee.
 Do not expose the units to extreme and sudden temperature changes, this may lead to rapid
changes in forecasts and readings and thereby reduce their accuracy.
