Changing Batteries
The battery statuses of the sensors are checked every hour. If the low battery indicators light up,
replace the batteries for the corresponding unit immediately.

Cleaning
The main console unit and outer casings for the remote sensors can be cleaned with a damp cloth.

in water or under running water.
Anemometer
- Check that the wind vane and wind cups can spin freely and are free from dirt, debris or spider
webs.
Rain Sensor
Like all rain gauges, the rain sensor is prone to blockages due to its funnel shape. Checking and
cleaning the rain sensor from time to time will maintain the accuracy of rain measurements.
- Detach the protective screen and lid. Remove any dirt, leaves or debris by cleaning the items with
soapy water and a damp cloth. Clean small holes and parts with a cotton tips or pipe-cleaner.
- Look out for spiders or insects that might have crawled into the funnel.
