WIND CHILL

Wind chill is the apparent temperature felt on exposed skin due to the combination of air temperature and
wind speed. The wind chill reading on the monitor is calculated based on the temperature measured from the
anemometer (channel-1) and the average wind speed.
To change the unit of wind chill temperature, press the "°C/°F" button on the back casing.
