CAUTION

WARNING

Your Kestrel Weather/Environmental Meter is designed to provide accurate

measurement of current conditions only. Depending on your location and

environment, conditions may change rapidly.

Rapid temperature and humidity changes (i.e., moving your meter from indoors to outdoors) may cause inaccurate readings of

temperature and humidity as well as all readings that rely on either of these values. Before relying on readings from your Kestrel Meter, be

sure to either a) force air ow over the sensors by waving or slinging your meter through the air; or b) wait until your unit’s readings have

stabilized, indicating it has equilibrated to its new environment.

To maximize the accuracy and reliability of your readings:

• Ensure that your Kestrel Meter is in good repair and within factory calibration.

• Take readings frequently and carefully according to the guidelines above.

• Allow your meter’s readings to stabilize after signicant changes in temperature or humidity (i.e., changing location from indoors

to outdoors).

• Allow a margin of safety for changing conditions and reading errors (2-3% of reading is recommended).

Use care and good judgment when referring to your Kestrel Meter to make any decisions regarding safety,

health or property protection.

To reduce the risk of injury or death to persons, read and follow these guidelines!

Your Kestrel Weather/Environmental Weather Meter may provide one or more of these measurements relating to estimation of danger of

injury to people or animals from heat or cold: Heat Stress Index, Wind Chill Index, Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (“WBGT”), Thermal Work

Limit (“TWL”). Note that guidance tables based on these values are based on typical physiological response. Certain individuals or animals

may be more susceptible to harm relating to environmental conditions and require additional precautions. For example, very young or

elderly individuals, individuals with asthma, and individuals who have not become acclimatized to hot conditions are likely to be more

prone to heat injury.

• Know yourself and the individuals and items you are responsible for.

• Where appropriate, seek the guidance of a medical professional.

• Know what to do in the event of heat or cold injury and be prepared with supplies.

• In the case of heat illness, remember the rule – “Cool rst, transport second.” An inexpensive ice bath can mean the dierence

between life and death.

Your Kestrel Weather/Environmental Meter is not a medical device. It is only one source of information and

must be employed with care and good judgment.

We recommend that ONLY Lithium AA batteries

be used in your Kestrel Weather/Environmental

Meter to provide the widest operating

temperature range and to avoid damage caused

by leaking lead-acid batteries. If you must use

conventional AA batteries, please do not store

your Kestrel Meter with the batteries in place.

Damage caused by battery corrosion is not

covered under warranty.

WARNING: Lithium is a toxic substance and

ingestion may cause serious injury or death. Keep

lithium batteries out of the reach of children. If

swallowed, immediately seek medical help. Have

doctor phone 24-hour hotline at (202) 625-3333,

call collect if necessary. Dispose of batteries

properly and according to local regulations. Do

not puncture or burn batteries. If the battery

compartment does not close securely, stop using

the product and keep it away from children.
