To Calibrate ‘FULL’

Ensure that the tank is full and all connections are secure; check that the yellow flame
resistant tubing is connected to the Sensor Module, (refer to the Note on Page 12 of this
manual).

Scroll to ‘CAL VAL 3’ (Full Vol).

Press ENTER, the default maximum value is displayed.

To set the maximum level, press ENTER and scroll up to set the value, which is the
maximum tank capacity (e.g. if the tank is 90 US Gallons and the units are set in US
Gallons then enter 90).

In the case of the units being calibrated in per cent (%), the maximum will always be recorded as
100.
