I. GENERAL INFORMATION

You have just acquired a piece of high precision equipment which has been created using the most modern technology. It has been designed to

stand up to intensive use. However, in order to maintain its appearance and its precision, we recommend that you treat it with care and pay

careful attention to these operating instructions.

The SKYWATCH

®

Xplorer is fitted with an impeller and with sensors which allow it to carry out measurements in the open air.

It will give you all the information essential for your open air activities such as hang-gliding, rambling, climbing or water sports. It will give you the

instant wind speed and the maximum wind speed (Xplorer 1, 2, 3 and 4), ambient temperature and wind chill temperature (Xplorer 2, 3 and 4),

an electronic compass (Xplorer 3 and 4) as well as altitude, pressure, and trends in the weather (Xplorer 4).

The SKYWATCH

®

Xplorer range has been designed to withstand short-term immersion in water at a depth of up to one metre.


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 the weather station.

Open-air climatic conditions can sometimes change quite dramatically and this can happen very quickly indeed. Sunny weather can, for

example, change to thunderstorm conditions in the space of half an hour and sometimes less. You should therefore always follow basic safety

rules whenever you undertake open air activity.

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.
