Victorinox ALTIMETER MULTI-TOOL User Manual
ALTIMETER
TM
14378
The Altimeter comes equipped with a 3 volt lithium battery (Panasonic
CR 1225, 3V). To change the battery, use the mini-screwdriver to open the
battery compartment and replace the battery (see illustration below).
ALTIMETER BATTERY CHANGE
The altitude is displayed with a delay in order to substantially
extend battery life. For this reason, a Victorinox Altimeter
may not be used to measure altitudes during parachuting
or similar types of speed/air pressure sports.
IMPORTANT
Extend each implement halfway, then
apply a few drops of oil at the base of that
implement. For blades that do not move
easily, open and close a few times in
warm water, then dry and oil. This care
will ensure a lifetime of faithful service.

OUR PRODU CTS
In 1884, Karl Elsener opened his cutlery workshop in Ibach,
Switzerland. In 1891, he obtained the first contract to supply the
Swiss Army with a “Soldier’s Knife.” Six years later, he invented
the “Swiss Officer’s Knife” which was officially registered
on June 12, 1897. Since that time, the Victorinox
®
Original
Swiss Army
™
Knife has become well-known in more than
100 countries for precision, quality, functionality and versatility.
Enjoy your new Victorinox multi-tool. You will find it
to be an invaluable companion.

Calibration
Altimeters calculate altitude on the basis of air pressure. For this
reason, any altimeter has to be recalibrated prior to use owing to
daily fluctuations in air pressure. The altimeter has to be reset at
a known altitude (e.g. at home, at a railway station, mountain cottage,
etc.) to this altitude.
Turning on Digital Display
Press and hold the Cross and Shield for 4 seconds until information
appears on the display. Either the temperature or the altitude will
appear depending on how long the display was last set. To toggle
between Altitude and Temperature modes, press the Cross and Shield.
