WARNING
When the air calibration is performed in the
atmosphere, check the atmosphere for freshness
before beginning the air calibration. If other gases
exist, the adjustment cannot be performed properly,
thus leading to dangers when the gas leaks.
CAUTION
Perform air calibration under pressure and
temperature/humidity conditions close to those in
the operating environment and in fresh air.
Perform air calibration after the reading is
stabilized.
If there is a sudden temperature change of 15ºC or
more between the storage and operation locations,
turn on the power of the gas monitor, let it leave for
about 10 minutes in a similar environment to the
operation location, and perform air calibration in
fresh air before using it.
