Battery notes
• Batteries should be kept out of children’s reach.
• Please observe the correct polarity (plus/+ and minus/-) when inserting the battery.
• Do not leave batteries lying around. Pets or small children might swallow them. If swallowed,
consult a doctor immediately.
• Leaking or damaged batteries can lead to caustic burning of the skin. Therefore, use suitable
protective gloves.
• Make sure that the batteries are not short-circuited, dissembled or thrown into fire. There is a
risk of explosion!
• Do not recharge normal batteries. There is a risk of explosion! Only charge rechargeable bat-
teries which are intended for this purpose; use a suitable battery charger.
• If not used for a longer period (e.g. in case of storage), remove the inserted battery. If batter-
ies are too old, they may leak and cause damage to the product, which leads to the cancella-
tion of the warranty/guarantee.
• For the environmentally friendly disposal of batteries and rechargeable batteries, please read
the chapter “Disposal”.

cating the current wind speed) Max. (=
Maximum, indicating the maximum wind
speed) or AVG (= Average, indicating the
average wind speed).
4) Battery state indication
5) “MODE” key
6) “°C/°F“ key
7) Wind wheel
8) Unit of wind speed
Wind velocity can be displayed in m/s, ft/min,
km/h, ft/min, knots, mph
9) Wind velocity
10) Temperature
The temperature can be displayed in °C or °F.
11) “SET” key
12) Fastening possibility for a lanyard
Start-up
• If it is the first commissioning remove the battery safety isolation (plastic strap) by pulling it out
of the battery compartment at the backside.
• Press “MODE” (5) and keep it pressed for about 1 second.
• Wind velocity, temperature and the battery state indication icon will be shown on the display.
Choosing the unit for wind velocity
To select the unit of the wind velocity, proceed as follows:
• Press “MODE” (5) and keep it pressed for about 3 seconds.
• Now select the desired unit of wind velocity by pressing the key “SET” (11).
☞
The wind velocity can be displayed in
- m/s (= metres per second),
- ft/min (= feet per minute; 1 ft = 30,48 cm) ,
- km/h (= kilometres per hour), ft/min, knots, mph
- knots (= knots = 1 knot = 1 sea mile/h = 1,852 km/h = 0,51444 m/s
- mph (= miles per hour; 1 mile = 1,609344 kilometres)
.
• Press the “MODE” key (5) to save the settings.
