CO CALIBRATION

The meter is calibrated to a standard 400ppm CO
NOTE: When the accuracy becomes a concern or after a year of use, return the meter to Extech for
calibration.
CAUTION: Do not calibrate the meter in an atmosphere of unknown CO
ABC (Automatic Baseline Calibration)
ABC (Automatic Baseline Calibration) establishes a baseline calibration to eliminate the zero drift of
the infrared sensor. The ABC function is always "ON" when the meter is turned on. ABC is designed
to calibrate the meter at the minimum CO
(power on). It assumes that the area being tested receives fresh air with a CO
approximately 400ppm at some period of time during the seven days. It is not suitable to use
desktop CO in closed areas with consistently high CO

Manual Calibration

Manual calibration is suggested to be done outdoors on a sunny day with good ventilation and fresh
air where the CO
humidity will affect the CO
Do not calibrate in places crowded with people or close to where high CO
such as ventilating outlets or fireplaces.
Place the meter in the calibration site. Turn on the meter and hold down the SET, ▲ and
MIN/MAX▼ buttons simultaneously for more than 1 second to enter CO
"400ppm" and "CO
The calibration will take about 30 minutes. When the calibration is complete, the blinking stops and
the meter returns to normal operation. To abort the calibration, press the RESET button for more
than 1 second.
Note: Keep away from any animal, human or plant which might affect the CO
the calibration.
