5. SAFETY WARNING

This analyser extracts combustion gases that may be toxic in relatively
low concentrations. These gases are exhausted from the back of the
instrument. This meter must only be used in well-ventilated locations
by trained and competent persons after due consideration of all the
potential hazards.
Sensor manufacturers recommend users of portable gas detectors
containing electrochemical conduct a "bump" check before relying on the
unit to verify an atmosphere is free from hazard.
A "bump" test is a means of verifying that an instrument is working within
acceptable limits by briefly exposing to a known gas mixture formulated
to change the output of all the sensors present. (This is different from a
calibration where the instrument is also exposed to a known gas mixture
but is allowed to settle to a steady figure and the reading adjusted to the
stated gas concentration of the test gas).

6. USING THE FOUR FUNCTION BUTTONS:

Switching ON the Analyser:
Press the ON/OFF button to switch the analyser ON. This must be done
in fresh air, to ensure the analyser auto calibrates its sensors correctly.
When switched on the analyser bleeps and displays the battery %, date,
time, fuel and model number. The second line of the display counts down
from 75 until the sensors are ready to use. If the analyser will not auto
calibrate! Its sensors need to be replaced or recalibrated by Kane
authorised repair centre.
If the flue probe is connected to the analyser during the countdown the
measure temperature will be used as the inlet temperature (Ti).
If the flue probe is NOT connected during the count down then the
analysers internal ambient temperature will be used as the inlet
temperature (Ti).
