5. Setup

5.1 Battery Installation

1. Locate the battery compartment cover on the back of the device.
2. Open the cover and insert the two AAA batteries, ensuring correct polarity (+/-).
3. Close the battery compartment cover securely.

5.2 Initial Power On

Press and hold the power button (red button) for approximately 2 seconds to turn on the device. The device will enter a preheating phase.

6. Operation

6.1 Preheating

After powering on, the detector requires approximately 30 seconds to preheat. During this time, the display may show a countdown or a warming-up indicator. Wait until the preheating is complete before proceeding with detection.

6.2 Selecting Sensitivity Mode

The HT60 offers two sensitivity modes:

• High Sensitivity Mode: Detects gas concentrations between 50-500 PPM. Ideal for pinpointing small leaks.
• Low Sensitivity Mode: Detects gas concentrations between 500-1000 PPM. Suitable for general area scanning.

Press the 'S' button (green button) to toggle between high and low sensitivity modes. The current mode will be indicated on the LCD display.

6.3 Gas Detection

Once preheating is complete, hold the detector with the sensor tip close to the area where a gas leak is suspected (e.g., gas pipes, appliance connections, valves).

Move the sensor tip slowly along the suspected leak path. The optimal detection distance is between 0.4 to 2.0 inches (1-5 cm) from the source.

6.4 Alarm Indication

If a gas leak is detected:

• The LCD display will turn red.
• An audible alarm will sound. The alarm tone will increase in frequency and volume as the gas concentration rises.

In case of an alarm, immediately ventilate the area, turn off gas sources if safe to do so, and investigate the source of the leak. Do not ignore gas alarms.

6.5 Automatic Shut-Off

The device will automatically power off after 5 minutes of inactivity to conserve battery life. To restart, press and hold the power button.
