Checking for CO, Backlight, Overrange, Low Battery

L O B A T

(air that is free of CO), adjust the Zero Adjust knob at the top of the instrument for a reading of 0 ±1 ppm.

If you’re not sure about the quality of the surrounding air, you can apply a blend of Oxygen/Nitrogen gas to the sensor as described under Calibration.

Checking for CO

Important! Ensure that the sensor grille at the rear of the instrument is unobstructed and open to the atmo- sphere. A quick instrument check can be performed by allowing the smoke of a blown-out match to enter into the sensor grille. This should cause the indicated CO level to increase.

After zeroing the Snifit, simply hold the instrument in the area that you suspect the presence of CO gas. If CO is present, the instrument will indicate the concentration of CO in ppm on its display.

Backlight

Pressing the Backlight button will illuminate the display for a period of 8 minutes, or until it is manu- ally turned off by again pressing the Backlight button.

Overrange

If the CO level exceeds 1999 ppm, the displayed reading is replaced by the number “1”.

Low Battery

When the Snifit’s 9V battery is nearing the end of its useful life, LO BAT will appear in the upper left hand corner of the display. Although

you can continue using the instrument under this condition, you should replace the battery as soon as possible to ensure accurate CO readings.
