possible. Refer to the instructions in “Replacing the Batteries” for more 
information.

Responding to a Sensor Failure Alarm

1. Try calibrating the 01 Series first, as described in “Calibration”, before 

replacing the sensor.

2. If the sensor failure continues, replace the sensor as described in 

“Replacing the Sensor”.

3. If the gas sensor failure condition continues after you have replaced the 

gas sensor, contact RKI Instruments, Inc. for further instructions. 

Responding to a System Failure Alarm

1. If a system failure occurs, try turning the unit off then on again.

2. If the unit remains in system failure, contact RKI Instruments, Inc. for 

further instructions.

Alarm Points

The 01 Series allows you to display and set the alarm points. The alarm 
point factory settings are summarized below:

In the table above, Low Alarm and High Alarm for the CO-01and HS-01 
refer to a rising concentration of the target gases. The Low Alarm is 
triggered at the Low Alarm concentration listed in the table. For the CO-01 
that would be 25 ppm CO, and for the HS-01 that would be 10.0 ppm. The 
High Alarm is triggered when the High Alarm concentration is reached.

For the OX-01, Low Alarm is triggered when the concentration of oxygen 
falls below 19.5%. When the concentration of oxygen rises above 23.5%, 
High Alarm is activated.

Displaying and Adjusting the Alarm Points

1. Make sure the 01 Series is turned off. The LCD should be blank.

2. Press and hold the AIR button, then press and hold the POWER/MODE 

button.
