  • Page 4: Introduction

    1. Introduction Thank you for purchasing the Multi-gas Detector. Be sure to read this instruction manual and use the product properly to prevent gas accidents and for inspection and maintenance. This Multi-gas Detector detects up to four types of gases, oxygen (O2), combustible gas (COMB), hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and carbon monoxide (CO), and displays all gas concentration values at the same time.
  • Page 5: Explanation Of Symbols

    Explanation of Symbols • The following symbols are used for safety purposes: Indicates a hazardous situation that may result in serious injury DANGER or death, if not avoided. Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that may result in WARNING serious injury or death, if not avoided. Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that may result in CAUTION minor injury or physical damage, if not avoided.
