BATTERY INSTALLATION/REPLACEMENT
Remove the battery sleeve cover by removing the battery sleeve screw
with a T-10 screwdriver. Depress the locking tab on the front of the
handle with a coin or flat object and pull the battery sleeve handle away
from the top or display area of the instrument.
Place 3 approved batteries into the battery holder. Observe the polarity
markings on the inside of the battery holder for proper battery installation.
Improper installation will cause the instrument not to operate.
Replace the battery sleeve and allow the locking tab to snap into
position. Replace the battery sleeve retaining screw. Check to be sure
the handle is secure to the instrument body by firmly pulling the handle
away. The handle will remain in place if a proper connection is made.

OPERATION AND USE
1. Push and hold the power button (A) until the display and backlight
illuminates.
2. If the display fails to illuminate or the BAT icon is shown on the display,
replace the batteries.

OPERATION AND USE
Move the sensor toward the area suspected of leakage. As the sensor
moves closer to a leak source the tick will increase. When the tick
becomes a steady tone press the TICK/CAL button (B) again while
keeping the sensor head in the same position. This will slow down the
tick and allow the operator to find a higher concentration using the same
procedure.
If there is no tick, press the TICK/CAL button (B) again to reset to the
steady ticking sound. For best results always use the leak detector prior
to using any liquid leak detection fluids as these sensors will detect their
presence.
