Troubleshooting

Problem

No outdoor sensor

reception

no bars

Outdoor

temperature

is flashing or

showing dashes

Inaccurate forecast

Inaccurate

temperature

or humidity

No rainfall

If the wireless signal indicator shows no bars:

• Relocate the display and/or the outdoor sensor.

The units must be within 330 ft (100 m) of each other.

• Make sure both units are placed at least 3 feet (.9 m) away from

electronics that may interfere with the wireless communication

(such as TVs, microwaves, computers, etc.).

• Use standard alkaline batteries (or lithium batteries in sensor

when temperature is below -4˚F/-20˚C). Do not use heavy-

duty or rechargeable batteries. NOTE: It may take a few

minutes for display and sensor to synchronize after batteries

are replaced.

Flashing of the outdoor temperature is generally an indication of

wireless interference.

1. Bring both the sensor and display indoors and remove batteries from each.

2. Make sure the A-B-C switches on both units match.

3. Reinstall batteries in the outdoor sensor.

4. Reinstall batteries in the display.

5. Let the units sit within a couple feet of each other for a few

minutes to gain a strong connection.

• Weather Forecast icon predicts conditions for the next 12 to 24

hours, not current conditions.

• Has Learning Mode icon disappeared from the display?

Learning Mode must complete before forecast and pressure will

be accurate.

• Allow unit to run continuously for 33 days. Battery removal or

resetting the display will restart Learning Mode. After 14 days,

forecast should be fairly accurate, however Learning Mode

calibrates for a total of 33 days.

• Make sure both the display and sensor are placed out of direct

sunlight and away from any heat sources or vents (see page 6).

• Make sure both units are positioned away from moisture

sources (see page 6).

• Check to ensure the rain gauge stabilizer (plastic tab) has been

removed from the bottom of the sensor.

• Clear debris, such as leaves, out of the rain collector funnel and

debris screen.

• Calibrate the rain gauge (see separate AcuRite Iris

manual).

• Verify the sensor's internal tipping lever is moving freely by

dripping a little water through the rain collector. You should

hear the lever tipping. If you do not hear it, you may need to

clean inside the sensor.
