• When the instrument signals a leakage, pull the probe away from the
leak for a moment, then bring it back to pinpoint the location. If the
refrigerant leak is large, setting the sensitivity switch to "Lo" will make
it easier to find the exact site of the leak.
• Return the sensitivity switch to "Hi" before searching for additional
leaks.
• When you've finished leak-testing, turn OFF the instrument and store it
in a clean place to protect the leak detector from possible damage.
REPLACING A NEW SENSOR:
Under normal operation, the sensor should work for more than one year.
Though, the sensor may experience a limited operative period. Exposing the
sensor to high densities of coolant (>30000ppm) will shorten its life cycle
rapidly. It is important to ensure that the sensor surface is free from water
droplets, vapor, oil, grease, dust and any or all other forms of contaminant.
Furthermore, to ensure good working condition of the unit, a sensor must be
replaced periodically when it's operative life is over.
WARNING! When replacing a new sensor, the worn-out sensor may be HOT!
(1) Remove cone cap cover from the tip of flexible probe.
(2) Pull out the old sensor and insert the new sensor into the plug
(see below fig. 2).
(3) Seal the cap cover over the plug.

CLEANING:
The instruments plastic housing can be cleaned with standard household
detergent or isopropyl alcohol. Care should be taken to prevent the cleaner
from entering the instrument. Gasoline and other solvents may damage the
plastic and should be avoided.
WARNING!
Detergent or isopropyl alcohol may damage the sensor. Please avoid contact
with the sensor at all times.
