Wireless Station Giving Too High A Temp Reading?

Ever since I changed the batteries in my (rather basic) wireless weather station a few hours ago, the temperature appears to be reading about 1 celcius above what it should be.

Can these devices be recalibrated?

It's an 'Oregon Scientific 433 mhz Cable Free Pro'

Thanks

I would say that it probably does need to be recalibrated but I can't seem to find any information on the internet about it being able to.

Did a manual guide come with it?

This happened with my first LaCrosse WS2300 temperature sensor aswell. When changing the battery it increased the temperature by over a degree. Ill be honest and say I never found a solution other than to buy a new sensor. You can do a correction in software if you have it hooked up to a PC (weatherdisplay allows this). However theres no guarantee it is out by the same amount throughout the range.
