AcuRite D1523 - Manual

The following meteorological “Rules of Thumb” will help you interpret your Acurite

®

barometer readings.

1. A rise in barometric pressure typically indicates clearing weather can be expected

2. A rapid drop in barometric pressure typically indicates that weather disturbances

are nearby and could result in precipitation

3. A slow but continuous drop in barometric pressure typically indicates that

persistent bad weather can be expected

4. Steep pressure drops typically indicates approaching storms with strong winds

Remember that many factors determine actual weather conditions. Geographic

location, temperature, humidity, wind direction and even the season must be

considered when your barometer indicates a rising or falling atmospheric pressure.

1 • Choosing the correct location

Thank You for purchasing this ACURITE

®

product. To fully understand and

appreciate your new home comfort monitor, please read this document

carefully.

Acurite

®

home comfort monitors are designed for indoor use only. They should be

placed on inside walls and away from heat registers, air conditioners, humidifiers,

and out of direct sunlight as these locations may affect the accuracy of the

thermometer and hygrometer instruments.

Mount your weather station on the wall

The Acurite

®

home comfort monitor has keyhole slots cut into the backside for

hanging. Use a securely anchored screw, nail or hook to support the weight of the

home comfort monitor. Make certain the screw/nail head is large enough to prevent

the monitor from slipping off in the event it is jarred or bumped.

2 • Care and cleaning of your home comfort monitor

Wood Plaque

The solid wood plaque is finished with a clear satin lacquer to protect and preserve

the appearance. Although occasional use of a good furniture paste wax is acceptable,

we recommend that periodic cleaning with a very lightly dampened soft cloth is best.

Be sure to wipe the wood dry with a soft cloth after cleaning.

Instruments

Avoid use of harsh household cleaners and coarse paper towels which would damage

the lacquer coating on the bezel and scratch the lens. Fingerprints and dirt may be

removed from the lenses and bezels with a soft cloth lightly dampened with a mixture

of water and mild dish washing liquid. Be sure to dry the lens and bezel with a soft

cloth after cleaning.
