“Calibration, Oxygen Version” on page 43 for calibration instructions.

NOTE:

When calibrating an M2 after changing the gas type, the M2 will not ask if you want to calibrate, or

whether you want to perform a fresh air adjustment, span adjustment or zero adjustment. Since a
complete calibration is required, the calibration sequence will proceed without asking if you want to
perform certain operations.
