GENERAL INFORMATION

Thank you for purchasing NTech USA’s SKYWATCH

Xplorer 4 . This instrument is manufactured by JDC

Electronic SA, based in Switzerland, designed and tested to meet the highest standards .

The Xplorer 4 is fitted with a precision replaceable impeller and internal sensors to measure your

environment . It is suitable for a range of activities including hang gliding, kiteboarding, hunting,

shooting, hiking, climbing, or atmospheric monitoring .

The SKYWATCH

Xplorer range has been designed to withstand short-term immersion in water at a

depth of up to three feet .

IMPORTANT!

This instrument is designed as an aid to users who are in an open air environment, but IT

CANNOT replace advice and warnings from the local weather station . This means that you

should regularly check and compare the measurements provided by your instrument with the

information put out by local sources . NTech USA and JDC ELECTRONIC SA can in no way be held

responsible for any consequences, direct or indirect, or for any prejudice, which might result from

the use of this instrument .

WARRANTY

NTech USA warrants this product for 2 years from date of purchase, with proper receipt or product

registration, or one year from date of manufacture with no receipt . Warranty does not necessarily cover

misuse, physical damage, or battery . Please contact us with any problems!

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Avoid items such as hair, thread, sand and other dust materials getting into the impeller, as they could

cause defective rotation of the impeller and therefore a loss of precision . If a hair or a piece of thread

should manage to get into the impeller, extract it gently using tweezers; in the case of dust or sand,

you can run clean water over the impeller . The Xplorer 4 features a removable, replaceable impeller .
