5.7 Light

By pressing the LIGHT/SNOOZE key the display will be lit for

approximately 5 seconds so that you can read the display on your base

station in the dark. It is not possible to have a continuous light on the

display. Please note, however, that more power is required to light the

display which can result in shorter battery life.

6 Assembly

The base station can either be fixed to a wall by means of a wall fixing

kit on the back or be positioned on its stand. The external sensor all has a

wall fixing kit on the back and a retractable stand.

7 Change battery display and changing the

batteries

7.1 Base station

7.1.1 Change battery display

Weak batteries in the base station are indicated by the change battery

display. A battery symbol appears on the display on the right next to the

internal humidity display. This will only appear however when the

batteries are low.

7.1.2 Changing the batteries

Open the battery compartment on the back of the housing. Insert

batteries (two x 1.5v AA batteries) correctly (note +/- polarity) and close

the battery compartment with the cover again.

In the event that after changing the batteries the external temperature and

external humidity are not displayed on the base station, you should

remove the batteries from the external sensor as well and re-insert them.

In addition, you can press the TX key on the back of the external sensor

to transmit the transmission signal manually. We recommend that you do

not use rechargeable batteries but use normal batteries in the Weather

Station.

Tip: When the batteries are changed, the stored data will be lost. You

must re-set the city and country data for sunrise, sunset, moonrise,

moonset and the atmospheric pressure.

7.2 External sensor

7.2.1 Change battery display

Weak batteries in the external sensor are indicated by the change battery

display. A battery symbol appears on the display on the base station on

the right next to the external humidity display. It will only appear

however when the batteries are low. The change battery display on the

base station for the external sensor will be shown only for the currently

selected channel (= external sensor).

In addition, if a battery is low this can be seen on the change battery

display on the external sensor.

7.2.2 Changing the batteries

Open the battery compartment on the back of the external sensor with a

small screwdriver. First push the retractable stand in the direction of the

arrow so that you can remove the battery compartment cover. Insert

batteries (two x 1.5v AAA batteries) correctly (note +/- polarity) and

close the battery compartment with the cover again.

Note:

When changing the batteries take care not to get the battery compartment

cover seal jammed and not to lose it.

8 Declaration of conformity

R&TTE Directive 1999/5/EC

Summary of the declaration of conformity: Krippl-Watches hereby

declares that the Weather Station (item no. AUK-WS-11) conforms with

the basic requirements and other relevant conditions of the Guideline

1999/5/EC.

9 Troubleshooting

Before you make a complaint about the device, first please check the

batteries and if necessary replace with new ones.

If the external temperature / humidity is not displayed on the base station

If the external sensor no longer registers, this may be for one of the

following reasons:

- The batteries on the external sensor and/or the base station are

too weak. Replace the old batteries. Never use old and new

batteries together and proceed with the re-registration of the

sensor as described in point 4, Putting the device into

operation.

- The external sensor reception is interrupted by obstructions, as

removal of obstructions is often not possible (e.g. thermopane

glazing, walls with steel reinforcements or certain concrete

compositions, steel bearers). Please reduce the distance

between the external sensor and the base station or use a sensor

extension cable (not included in the delivery).

- If by mistake the first external sensor registers on the second

channel or the second external sensor registers on the third

channel, remove the batteries, check the relevant setting of the

channel selector on the back of the external sensor (channel 1,2

or 3) and insert the batteries again.

- Two different external sensors alternately display the

temperature on one channel: Remove the batteries from both

external sensors, check the relevant setting of the channel

selector on the back of the sensor (channel 1,2 or 3) and insert

the batteries again. Every time the external sensors are put

into operation again, the internal transmission signal is

changed (recoded)

- When external temperatures are below 0°C, the battery

performance can diminish and radio transmission can weaken.

In this event, reduce the distance between the external sensor

and the base station.

- If the display on the base station is not showing the external

temperature and the external humidity, but only ‘- - -.-’, this

could be caused by the batteries in the base station being too

weak and therefore unable to receive the signals from the

external sensor. Exchange the batteries for new ones.

Interruptions to reception can also be caused by other

household equipment, TV and radio remote controls, jamming

transmitters or other external transmitters. Also in this case

only ‘- - - - or HHH or LLL” can be seen on the display. In

this event, hold the CHANNEL key down for approximately 5

seconds until you hear a signal tone. Wait a short time. After

the external sensor’s next transmission signal the current

external temperature and external humidity should be

displayed again.

Weak batteries in the base station

Replace the batteries as soon as the change battery symbol is displayed.

Wait for approximately 30 minutes before inserting the new batteries. Do

not touch the battery contacts when inserting the batteries. This reduces

the corrosion stability of the contacts and extends the life of the batteries.

When inserting the new batteries always observe the polarity is correct.

After changing the batteries proceed as described in point 4, Putting the

device into operation.

Weak batteries in the external sensor

Replace the batteries as soon as the change battery symbol is displayed

(appears on the external sensor and the base station). When inserting the

new batteries always observe the polarity is correct. Afterwards the

external sensor must be re-registered. Proceed as described in point 4,

Putting the device into operation.

Temperature tolerance

The base station and the external sensor have sensors which work

independently of one another.

External sensor temperature tolerance: +/- 1°C

Base station temperature tolerance: +/- 1°C

It is therefore possible that 2 external sensors positioned next to each

other (and/or base station and external sensor) show a temperature

difference of 2°C.) In the case of marked temperature fluctuations, the

difference can be slightly higher as the external sensor does not transmit

permanently.

Incorrect temperature display

The temperature display will be affected by direct sunlight. Please

position the external sensor so that it is exposed to actual weather

fluctuations, i.e. not indoors for example or in a summerhouse in the

garden.

Humidity tolerance

The base station and the external sensor have sensors which work

independently of one another.

External sensor humidity tolerance: +/- 10%

Base station humidity tolerance: +/- 10%

(each related to medium humidity)

It is therefore possible that 2 external sensors positioned next to each

other (and/or base station and external sensor) show a humidity

difference of 20%.) In the case of marked humidity fluctuations, the

difference can be slightly higher as the external sensor does not transmit

permanently.

Humidity display permanently 20%

If the humidity display permanently shows 20%, then the humidity is

below the measurable range or is 20%. Air surges can remedy this.

Frequent air surges can cause higher humidity. Above all, in winter

humidity in living rooms is very low.

The radio clock is not receiving a radio signal

In the event that the radio clock is not receiving a signal, please try again

in a different location. The reception of the radio clock signal can be

obstructed by structural or natural obstructions (e.g. mountains) or it can

be impossible to receive a signal. The device has a quartz clock for this

event, which can then be used instead (see point 5.1.2, Manual settings)

Electro-magnetic or atmospheric interruptions can also obstruct the radio

clock signal. These interruptions can be remedied usually just by moving

to a different location.

Electro-magnetic interference

If possible, do not place the base station or the external sensor near to

computers, printers, television sets, mobile telephones or radios as

devices with strong EMC rays and other radio stations can interrupt or

prevent radio reception.

Times for sunrise, sunset and moonrise and moonset are not correct

Please note that in the summer time phase, it is not absolutely necessary

to receive a daily radio clock signal. If this is not the case, then it is

possible that there is a deviation of an hour for the rising and setting

times of the sun and moon (the difference between summer and

wintertime). (For help, see point 9, Troubleshooting ‘The radio clock is

not receiving a radio clock signal”).
