 This module communicates with [BME280/BMP280 temperature/air presssure/humidity sensors](http://www.bosch-sensortec.com/bst/products/all_products/bme280) (Bosch Sensortec) through [I2C](../modules/i2c.md) interface. 
 
-Note: the module works only with the [bme280_math](../modules/bme280_math) module.
+!!! note

+    The module works only with the [bme280_math](../modules/bme280_math) module.
+
+!!! caution
+
+    The BMP280 only supports temperature and air pressure measurements. It will give wrong readings for humidity but no warnings or errors. Sometimes sellers of breakout boards for these sensors confuse the two and sell one as the other.
+    
+    To easily check if you have a BMP280 or a BME280 look at the shape of the sensor: The BMP280 has rectangular shape, whereas the BME280 has a square one.
 
 ## bme280.setup()
 
-Creates bme280sensor object and initializes module. Initialization is mandatory before read values. Note that there has to be a delay between some tens to hundreds of milliseconds between calling `setup()` and reading measurements.
