4. PREPARING FOR USE
The Main Switch:
There is a master ON/OFF switch located at the front of the base unit
This must be switched on before use and when charging.
The OFF position is provided for
when longer term storage is
anticipated to ensure that the
batteries are not discharged.
Attaching the probe:
The probe attaches to the AUTO600’s body using a metal screw thread
attachment. This only needs to be hand tight. Take care not to over
tighten or cross thread it.
Do not insert the probe into the
vehicle exhaust until:
a) The vehicle’s engine is up to
the required temperature
b) The AUTO600 has
completed its warm up
sequence and has auto-
calibrated itself.
c) Instructed to do so by the
handset in PEAK mode
operation.
Bluetooth or cable connectivity:
It is possible to
use either Bluetooth to link the handset and base unit, or
the included cable if preferred. It is not possible to switch from one to the
other while in use. In order to change the connection method the
AUTO600 must be powered down and then restarted.
Bluetooth communication between the handset and the base unit is
achieved using Class1 devices. These have a nominal range of one
hundred metres.
