Operation
Preparations for operation
 Before using the instrument for the first time, insert a charged NiMH T4
power pack or batteries approved by Dräger see "Replacing the batteries /
rechargeable batteries" on Page 20.
 The instrument is now ready for operation.
To reduce the risk of ignition of a flammable or explosive atmosphere, strictly
adhere to the following warning statements:
Only use power pack types ABT 01xx, HBT 00xx or HBT 01xx. See the marking
on the rechargeable battery for permitted rechargeable batteries and the
corresponding temperature class.
Substitution of components may impair intrinsic safety.
Switching on the instrument
 Hold down the [ OK ] key for approx. 3 seconds until the countdown » 3 . 2 . 1 «
shown on the display has elapsed.
– All the display segments, including the visual, audible and vibration alarms,
are activated for a short time.
– The software version is displayed.
– The instrument performs a self-test.
– The sensor that is up next for adjustment is displayed with the remaining
days until the next adjustment, e.g. » ch
– The time until the bump test interval elapses is displayed in days, e.g.» bt 2 «.
– All A1 and A2 alarm thresholds and if applicable »

– During the sensor warm-up phase:
 The display for the measured value flashes
 The special symbol » « is displayed.
 No alarms are issued during the warm-up phase.
 The red LEDs flash.
 The gas detector is ready to measure when the measured values no
longer flash and the red LEDs are no longer illuminated. The special
symbol » « may continue to be displayed if corresponding warnings
(e.g. not yet ready for calibration) are active (to view the warnings, see
the technical manual).
