WARNING
Serious damage to health
An incorrect calibration can lead to incorrect measured values, which may result in
serious damage to health.
► Before performing safety-relevant measurements, check the calibration by
means of a bump test, adjust as necessary, and check all alarm elements. If
national regulations exist, the bump test must be performed in accordance with
these regulations.
The gas detector should be worn for personal monitoring in the proximity of the
breathing zone.
Dräger recommend using the clip to attach the gas detector to clothing either on
your collar or breast pocket. If gases are expected in a closed space that are
(much) heavier than air (e.g. CO
2
), then the gas detector can be worn in a lower
position, e.g. on your belt or at your hip.
The gas detector has magnetic switches. Do not put any magnets in the
immediate proximity of the gas detector (e.g. name badges with magnetic holders).
This could trigger features (e.g. bump test) on the gas detector.
1. Switch on the gas detector. The current measured values are shown in the
display.
2. Observe warnings, error messages and special states.
3. Verify that the gas inlet openings and membranes are clean, freely accessible,
dry and undamaged.
4. Check that the date and time are set correctly.

Connecting a gas detector to a smartphone
The gas detector can be connected to a suitable smartphone via Bluetooth
®
. The
Bluetooth
®
feature and the GATT (Generic Attribute Profile) interface (subject to
licensing) can be activated via the CC-Vision PC software.
Data transmitted via Bluetooth
®
can be used for additional safety measures.
However, the data does not replace primary on-site measures by the gas detector.
The alarm on the gas detector is decisive. An important consideration is that a
mobile network and WLAN reception are not always available or can be interrupted.
For specific features, Dräger offers apps that can be installed on a suitable
smartphone or tablet. A license may be required under certain circumstances. For
detailed information on connecting via Bluetooth
®
also refer to the instructions for
use of the smartphone used.
Prerequisites
– Bluetooth
®
is activated on the gas detector and the smartphone.
