OPERATION:
1. Switch the unit on by pressing the ON/OFF key .The display will illuminate with the reset indication (Left LED
green,all others Red)for 3 seconds.
2. Verify the battery level by observing the constant power indicator (see above).
3. Upon turn on,the unit is set to sensitivity level 5.A rapid,but steady beep rate will be heard.lf desired,the
sensitivity can be adjusted by pressing the SENSITIVITY
4. Begin searching for Ieaks.When refrigerant is detected,the audible tone will change to a `siren’ type sound
,distinctly different from the base beep rate. Additionally,the visual indicators will light progressively as described
in the Alarm indications section.
5. Sensitivity can be adjusted at any time during operation by using the SENSITIV ITY or SENSITIVITY key. This
adjustment will not interrupt detection.
6. If a full alarm occurs before the leak is pinpointed,press the RESET key to reset the circuit to a zero reference as
described above.
OPERATING TIPS
The following section includes several general operating tips,and the Delicacy recommended procedure for leak
detection.
1. Adjust the sensitivity up ,only when a leak canit be found.Adjust the sensitivity down only when resetting the
unit does not allow you to `home in ‘ on the leak.
2. In areas that are heavily contaminated with gas ,the unit may be reset to block out ambient concentrations of
gas .The probe should not be moved while the unit is being reset .The unit can be reset as many times as needed.
3. In windy areas,even a large leak can be difficult ot find .Under these conditions, it is best to shield the potential
leak area.
4. Be aware that the detector may alarm if the sensing tip comes in contact with moisture and/or solvents.
Therefore,avoid contact with these when leak checking.
