Basic maintenance

 

 
Charging the battery:

 

When operating the  product  in portable mode, the built-in battery must  be checked and recharged if 

necessary. If the battery is discharged, the product will switch off automatically. The product is switched on 
again by connecting the power supply to the USB port. 

The current battery charge status is indicated by the battery icon in the top right corner of the display. 

The  current  battery  capacity  is  indicated  by  the  white  portion  in  the  battery  icon.  Low  battery  is  also 
indicated by an acoustic alarm and a yellow triangle symbol with an exclamation mark on the display (see 
picture below). 

 

Fig. 9 – Incorrect product parameters – low battery 

 
The battery is charged via the USB port using the supplied USB cable. The USB cable can be connected to 

a  PC  or  to  the  supplied  power  adapter.  Plug  the  USB  cable  with  power  supply  into  the  USB  port  of  the 
product. The icon will indicate the battery charging status – the battery icon with flash. The battery is fully 
charged  when  the  battery  icon  is  completely  filled  with  white  colour.  The  battery  is  always  fully  charged 
within a maximum of 8 hours after connecting the power adapter.

The  battery  voltage  can  also  be  read  on  the  information  screen  (i).  The  voltage  varies  between  3.4  V 

(product will be powered off) and about 4.15 V (full charge). 

 
Recalibration of CO2 and VOC sensor 

      In  case  of  long-term  use  of  the  product,  the  CO2  and  VOC  sensors  may  show  some  deviations  and 
therefore it is advisable to perform a user calibration of the sensor. User calibration can be started on the 
"Factory  limit  settings  and  CO2  and  VOC  user  calibration  screen".  User  calibration  is  based  on  the 
assumption  that  the  product  is  exposed  to  the  cleanest  possible  air  during  automatic  calibration,  which 
corresponds to the outdoor environment. Therefore, it is necessary to place the product outdoors at least 
30 min before starting the user calibration and during the calibration. Incorrect calibration, such as inside a 
room, will cause subsequent incorrect measurements of CO2 and VOC concentrations. 
 

Faulty product states and product restart 

In case of unexpected behaviour of the product (no reaction, etc.), it is possible to restore the product to 
the factory settings using the restart button  (located on the bottom side of the product behind the small 
hole. You will need a needle or other pointed/narrow object to press it).
