User Manual of Capnograph and Oximeter The device was designed to automatically perform calibrations in order to correct for changes in temperature, altitude and electronic component drift. The air surrounding the device may have elevated concentrations of CO present (such as in an enclosed compartment or room with poor ventilation). Therefore, we recommend use in well ventilated locations to ensure that the CO baseline does not cause inaccuracy.
