5.3. Alarms and Indicators

The monitor features intuitive visual and audible alarms. The display uses color-coded icons (Green to Red) to indicate air quality levels. If safety thresholds are exceeded, an audible alarm will sound, the indicator light will flash, and the interface color may change.

Default alarm values are:

• AQI: 100
• CO2: 1500 PPM
• PM1.0: 75 µg/m³
• PM2.5: 75 µg/m³
• PM10: 150 µg/m³
• HCHO: 0.1 mg/m³
• TVOC: 0.5 mg/m³

6. Calibration

For optimal accuracy, especially for CO2, HCHO, and TVOC sensors, calibration is recommended upon first use and periodically thereafter. Perform calibration in a fresh air environment.

6.1. CO2 Calibration Procedure

1. Charge the device for 5 minutes before its first use.
2. With the power on, place the device in a well-ventilated area for more than 10 minutes.
3. Select "Yes" in the calibration interface to proceed with calibration. The calibration will be completed with a long beep.

Expert Tip: If there is a significant variation in readings due to strong odors (e.g., perfumes, cooking fumes), a simple restart in fresh air can help restore laboratory-level precision.

7. Understanding Air Quality Readings

The device measures various parameters. Refer to the table below for a general understanding of air quality levels based on common pollutants.
