power the console. The value is dashed out (--) if no batteries are installed.

data or console configuration settings.

the two latches at the top of the cover.

4. In the top battery compartment, insert a fingertip between the battery and the 

notched end of the compartment and remove the battery.

5. Repeat the process for the batteries in the bottom battery compartment.
6. Install the new batteries. (See “Installing Batteries” on page 3.)7. Replace the battery cover and remove the AC power adapter, if desired.

From time to time Davis engineers update the Vantage Vue 
console firmware. View the firmware version in Value 4 in 
the Statistical Diagnostic screen, or by pressing and holding 
DONE and + from the Current Weather Mode screen.
You can check the firmware version currently available and download, at no charge, 
the newest firmware to your console on the Weather Software Support section of our 
website (http://www.davisnet.com/support). A WeatherLink data logger is required 
to update the firmware into the console. 

For details on our warranty policy, please refer to the Maintenance, Service, and Repair
