WeatherHawk Skymate Plus SM-19 User Manual

Skymate Plus Users Manual V1.0

Getting Started

Your Skymate Plus package contains one Lithium CR2032 battery (already installed), calibration numbers (on a
small white paper included with the manual), and a lanyard. It is very important that you keep the calibration
numbers with your manual. Do not throw the calibration paper away! To install the lanyard, feed one end
through the hole at the bottom of the handle and tie it to the other end. Open case and click into fully opened
position or, if using a tripod, click to the 90-degree position. Your Skymate Plus has sensitive sensors. Hold the
Skymate Plus at the bottom of the handle, away from your face and body, to avoid getting false readings.
