Product Warnings
WARNING
To prevent ignition of a hazardous atmosphere, batteries must only
be changed in an area known to be nonhazardous (i.e., completely
free of combustible gas).
WARNING
Use only Duracell® MN1300 batteries to maintain intrinsically safe
approval.
WARNING
Always check instrument operation with a known combustible leak
source before use.
WARNING
The GAS-Mate will detect leaks as described below but may not
indicate when a hazardous atmosphere is present due to its Auto
Zeroing function. Lack of a reading by the GAS-Mate should not be
taken as an indication that the atmosphere is totally safe.
WARNING
There are no user serviceable parts inside. Do not disassemble the
GAS-Mate.
