STEP 1: Calibration to Fresh Air (400 ppm).

  1. Turn on the unit and leave the CO2 monitor in outdoor fresh air for 30 minutes.
  2. As you are calibrating, don't forget to breath away from the unit. Your exhalation breath has high CO2 concentration and may create an error signal to the unit.
  3. Tap on the MENU button and make the 400 icon flash.
  4. Once the calibration icon is flashing, tap on the ENTER button.
  5. The screen will display 400ppm. 
  6. Then hold down the ENTER button for 3 seconds until you hear a beep and then you will see a countdown timer from 250 seconds.
  7. Once counted down, the calibration is COMPLETE. Your unit will read about 400ppm in outdoor fresh air.
  8. Done!
