2.

Hold

 while pressing 

.  As soon as the power turns on, release 

 and 

 and then

3.

Press

 five times followed by 

.

4.

The gauge will beep 5 times and return to normal operation.  The DMG100 is now reset to the 

original factory calibration.

Troubleshooting

Under certain conditions, the display may read

Restart Calibration.  Leave 

the Gauge Undisturbed

During Warming Phase.

Low Temperature Operation

The DMG100 can operate accurately at temperatures as low as 10

°

F (-12

°

C).  While operating below 

freezing (32

°

F/0

°

C), the display update rate will slow from 3.5 readings every second to one reading 

every two seconds.

A standard alkaline battey may not provide acceptable battery life at temperatures below 0

°

C (32

°

F).

For low temperature operation, a 9V Lithium battery is recommended.
