screen will appear.
7. Select the Gear icon to enter mode to change the default language, Date/Time and units of measure. The FX1234 will allow you to
modify the weight unit of measure prior to entering the charge amount. This feature anticipates that the vehicle may be asking for a unit

8. Fill the internal storage tank. From the Home screen, select Connect the red high side hose to a virgin, or recycled refrigerant tank
using the supplied tank adapter. Refrigerant will be moved from the external tank to the internal tank in a liquid state. Therefore, a virgin
tank may be turned upside down, or if filling from a recycled tank, the hose may be connected to the “liquid” port. Follow the directions
on the FX display.
Congratulations, your FX Series Refrigerant Management Center is ready to use.
