Storage
Do not store in areas which contain solvent
vapors. This includes aerosols such as air-freshen-
er, wax polish, window cleaner, and all organic sol-
vents.
Calibration
Because the chemical sensor can be degraded
by exposure to harmful chemicals, dirt and other
contamination, high temperatures, and extremes in
humidity, periodic calibration can maintain accuracy
of the sensor over time. Drift is expected to be less
than 5%/year in most cases but is dependent on
use.
Optional pump
Use the model AOXP2 pump to extract ambient
air samples from hard to reach places or from loca-
tions where the air temperature is high.
For potentially high concentrations of CO, pump
slowly and stop if the measurement approaches
2000PPM.
Carbon monoxide concentrations will begin to be
shown in two or three squeezes. For final reading,
pump until the reading stabilizes--approximately 30
squeezes.
Press MAX on DMM to hold highest reading.

Cross-sensitivity
The sensor has a permanent unreplaceable filter
built inside the sensor to filter out trace concentra-
tions of SO2, NO2, and most hydrocarbons. If
exposed to high concentrations of harmful chemi-
cals or dirt, the filter can deteriorate and/or impede
diffusion of air to the sensor.
