Using the PINGKO PK-303 Weather Station.
The first thing that you need to do to start using this weather station is to install the supplied AAA batteries into the White outdoor remote sensor.
The next thing you need to do is plug in the Micro USB cable (Which has a length of 100cm) into the supplied AC plug adapter and the other end into the back of the weather station into the USB interface and power it on.
You need to place the indoor unit on a flat and level surface in your chosen room, do not keep hold of it, or place it near any heat sources as it will detect false temperature room readings.
You need to place the outdoor sensor externally and within a 30M range, but this range can be reduced if the signal has been obstructed due to internal walls and room fixtures.

To set the alarm press and hold the M/S Button and use the +CH button to set a time, when the bell icon appears the alarm has been set.

Conclusion.
I like this weather station from PINGKO. I like the clear colourful icons and graphics that the indoor unit displays. There’re a couple of things that do need some improvement, the first is a longer Micro USB cable, the supplied 100cm cable is just not long enough or better still a rechargeable cable free option would also be great. The user guide although is written in English needs to be re-written to make it easier and clearer to understand as some of the instructions printed are complicated and could be made clearer for the English-speaking market.
Overall though I still love this weather station and recommend you purchase one for your household.
