Set Wind Speed Measurement – After turning the unit off,
turn it back on and press the “Mode” button for about 3 seconds
until the “m/s” starts to blink. Press the “Set” button to navigate
through the units of wind speed and into the choices of
wind speed measurement – “Cu” for current wind speed,
“MAX” for maximum wind speed and “AVG” for average wind
speed. Press the “Mode” button to confirm your choice.
The setting will be stored in your unit even after turning it off.
The MAX wind speed will indicate the highest wind speed
recorded once it is set unless you reset to another measurement
unit. The AVG wind speed will indicate the last 8 sample periods
or 4 seconds of running average.
w
Wind Display on the LCD – When the impeller (fan/vane)
turns, the LCD will instantly display the wind speed and
temperature per the settings you chose along with the
Beaufort scale.
w
Set the Temperature Unit – On the rear of the unit is a
hidden switch key with “C/F” noted below it. Use a small pin
(or other thin object) to press the key to convert the
temperature reading between “C” and “F”.
w
Wind Chill – When temperature drops below 32° F (0° C),
the wind icon “WIND CHILL” will be indicated on the LCD.
w
Backlight Display – Press either button to activate the
backlight. It will stay on for about 10 seconds.
w
Auto Power Off – The unit will turn off automatically if not
operating for about 14 minutes.

door with a coin in the direction indicated and use a very small
flat screwdriver to remove the door cover. Replace the CR2032
battery with the “+” position facing up. Put the battery cover
back on and close.
