Make sure the gas to be detected is listed above.
Only turn on the meter in an environment unpolluted by gas.
Press and hold the "On / Off" key for about 1 second. The meter will vibrate and a signal
tone will sound.
Let the meter warm up for 40 seconds. The remaining time will be displayed.
Select the desired sensitivity with the "H/L" key.
Clean the areas to be examined from oil and dust. Oil and dust can impair the detection.
Slowly move the sensor head to the area to be examined.
If there is a gas leak, the instrument will signal that gas escapes (see chart below),
depending on the sensitivity setting. Keep in mind the reaction time of at least 2
seconds. Move the sensor head back a little to exactly locate the leak.
Switch off the meter after the leak detection. To do this, press and hold the "On / Off"
key for about 1 second.
