- Hlahisa Mosebetsi:
Tobetsa ea Seta bocha button to zero the reference point. This is useful when moving from a contaminated area to a clean one, or to re-establish a baseline for detection.
- Mokhoa oa ho khutsa:
Tobetsa ea Semumu button to silence the audible alarm. The visual LED bar will continue to indicate leak levels.
- UV Light Activation:
Tobetsa ea Leseli la UV button to activate the built-in UV/blue light. This is used in conjunction with UV dye to visually confirm leaks.
Setšoantšo: Haufi view of the flexible probe tip, clearly showing the integrated UV/blue LED light, which is essential for visual leak detection using fluorescent dyes.
- Leak Detection Process:
Slowly move the flexible probe around suspected leak areas. The unit will emit an audible alarm and the LED bar will illuminate, increasing in frequency and number of LEDs as a leak is detected and its concentration increases.

Tlhokomelo
- Sensor Tip Replacement:
The sensor tip (part #55100-SEN) is a consumable item and should be replaced periodically, especially if detection accuracy diminishes. Refer to the diagram below for location. Carefully unscrew the old sensor and screw in the new one.
- UV LED Bulb Replacement:
If the UV light weakens or fails, the UV LED bulb (part #53515-B) can be replaced. Consult the product diagram for its location on the probe tip. Follow instructions for careful removal and installation.
- Phetoho ea Betri:
Replace the "C" batteries when the low battery indicator illuminates or when the unit's performance degrades. Always use fresh, high-quality batteries.
- Ho hloekisa:
Hlakola yuniti ka bohloeki, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the unit in water. Keep the sensor tip clean and free of debris.
- Polokelo:
Store the leak detector in its carrying case in a cool, dry place when not in use. For extended storage, it is recommended to remove the batteries to prevent leakage.
