Technical specifications
Measurement ranges
| Quantity | Range | Resolution | Accuracy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wind speed | 0–30 m/s (accuracy specified for this range) | 0.1 m/s | ±(5% of reading + 0.5 m/s) |
| Temperature | -10 to +50 °C | 0.1 °C | ±2 °C |
| Beaufort scale | 0–12 | 1 | ±1 |
The Beaufort scale reading is for guidance only. Accuracy is specified at a temperature of 23 ±5 °C and relative humidity of ≤80% RH.
Speed in km/h
| Range | Accuracy |
|---|---|
| 1.4–108 km/h | ±(5% of reading + 15 dgts) |
Readings in km/h are for guidance only. In the accuracy specification, ‘dgts’ means units of the least significant digit of the reading.

Storage
Store the meter in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources, at a temperature of -20 to +60 °C and relative humidity of ≤75% RH. Remove the batteries if the meter will not be used for an extended period.
How to use
Before first use, insert the batteries as described in ‘Replacing the batteries’ (MAINTENANCE section).
Switching on
Briefly press ON/OFF (power) to switch on the meter.
Selecting units
Briefly press UNIT (units) to cycle through the speed units in this order: m/s, km/h, ft/min, knots, mph. Press and hold UNIT to switch the temperature unit between °C and °F.
Measurement
- 01Position the impeller in the airflow being measured so that it can rotate freely.
- 02Read the wind speed and temperature from the LCD.
Maximum and average values
Press MAX/AVG to select maximum value measurement, average value measurement or normal mode. In MAX mode, the meter displays the highest recorded value, and in AVG mode it displays the average value.
Reading hold and backlight
Briefly press HOLD/BL to hold the reading on the display (HOLD). Briefly press it again to resume measurement. Press and hold HOLD/BL to switch on the backlight (BL); press and hold it again to switch it off.
Automatic power-off
To disable automatic power-off, press and hold HOLD/BL, then press ON/OFF. APO OFF confirms that the function is disabled. The same sequence enables the function again.
Finishing measurement
After measurement, briefly press ON/OFF to switch off the meter.
Maintenance
Cleaning and servicing
Clean the housing with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not use abrasives or solvents.

- 02Slide the battery compartment cover in the direction of the arrow and lift it off.
- 03Remove the spent batteries if they are in the compartment. Insert new batteries according to the polarity markings.
- 04Close the battery compartment cover.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| The meter switches off | Automatic power-off after 5 min of inactivity | Switch the meter on again using the ON/OFF button. If you need continuous operation, disable automatic power-off as described in ‘Automatic power-off’. |
| The meter switches off | Low battery | Replace the batteries as described in ‘Replacing the batteries’. |
Waste electrical and electronic equipment
- 01The crossed-out bin symbol means that the device must not be disposed of with other waste at the end of its life.
Under applicable regulations on waste electrical and electronic equipment, products marked with the separate collection symbol must not be disposed of with other municipal waste. Because they contain harmful substances, electronic products that are not collected separately may be hazardous to the environment and human health. Proper separate collection of waste electrical and electronic equipment prevents negative effects on the environment.
By taking waste equipment to a collection point, you contribute to its reuse, recycling and recovery.
Recycling - one method of protecting the environment. The process of recovering substances from waste that can be reused as raw materials.
Waste recovery - the use of waste that has lost its useful value, such as plastics, paper and cardboard, as secondary raw materials (also commonly used to mean destruction of waste).
Information about the collection system for waste electrical and electronic equipment
- ■Waste electrical and electronic equipment must not be disposed of with other waste.
- ■Collecting incomplete electrical and electronic equipment and parts from waste equipment is prohibited.
- ■A distributor delivering equipment intended for households to a purchaser must collect waste household equipment free of charge at the place of delivery, provided that the waste equipment is of the same type and performs the same function as the equipment delivered.
- ■You can hand over waste equipment to a waste equipment collector, a treatment facility or a municipal waste collector in your municipality.
- ■Information about collection points is available on the Public Information Bulletin (BIP) websites of regional, city and municipal authorities.
