SENSOR
A STARTEK sensor will last between 25 and 30 hours of continuous use.
A failed or failing sensor will be indicated in one of the following ways:
1. Unstable or erratic operation of the unit and many false alarms,
even in pure air.
2. A continuous “siren” sound.
SENSOR REPLACEMENT
In either case, replacement of the sensor is necessary:
Ÿ Turn the power off.
Ÿ Locate the replacement sensor in the battery compartment.
Ÿ Unscrew (turn counter clockwise) the old sensor from the end of the
probe.
Ÿ Screw (turn clockwise) the new sensor into place.
MAINTENANCE
The STARTEK should provide years of service with little maintenance
aside from changing batteries and sensors. The case may be cleaned
with a shop towel moistened with water and a mild detergent. Do not
use solvent of any kind.
