ball propeller into the sphere when not in use.
Despite the rugged casing, avoid dropping your instrument and exposing it to
shock. This limited warranty shall be in effect for one year after the date of purchase
by the original consumer purchaser. During this limited warranty period, JDC Elec-
tronic SA will repair or replace without charges any defective product with a

The speed measurement principle of the SKYWATCH
®
Geos is based on magnetic
transmission. The turning impeller creates a magnetic field that is detected by the
SKYWATCH
®
Geos (JDC Electronic SA patent). If the SKYWATCH
®
Geos is close to
another magnetic field (from a computer, electronic appliance, etc...), it may display
unexpected values but only if the impeller is not turning. This is not effecting the
normal use of the SKYWATCH
®
Geos.
