UNI-T A37 Carbon Dioxide Monitor User Manual
Introduction
CO2 is a naturally occurring gas that emitted at great levels by human activity and it is one of several greenhouse gases in our atmosphere. CO2 only accounts for 0.03% of the fresh air. If you breathe high concentration COC , you may be at risk of carbon dioxide intoxication. Symptoms of carbon dioxide toxicity include headache, irregular heartbeat, nausea, unconsciousness, or even death.
A37 is a COz Monitor that measures COC concentration, temperature and humidity. This monitor is widely used in homes, shopping malls, offices, vehicles, stations etc.
Please read carefully and follow all warnings and precautions before using the device.

Operations
COz measurement
Long press @ to turn on the monitor. It takes 120s to stabilize COz concentration. CO2 concentration, ambient temperature, relative humidity will be displayed on the screen. COz concentration value is refreshed every 3 seconds.
Note: if CO2>1000ppm, buzzer goes off with red backlight flashing. The audio alarm’s default setting is OFF, long press @ to turn on the audio alarm.

| MIN | Minimum value |
| AVG | Average value |
| TWA | Time weighted average |
| STEL | Short-term exposure limit |
TWA: The average exposure within the workplace to any hazardous contaminant or agent using the baseline of an 8 hour day or 40 hours week work schedule.
STEL: The acceptable exposure limit to a toxic or irritant substance over a short period of time (time-weighted average), usually 15 minutes.
Auto shutdown: The monitor will automatically shut down if there is no operation for 2 hours.
Backlight: Please refer to Operation Instructions-Functional Buttons
Audio alarm: Please refer to Operation Instructions-Functional Buttons
Temperature unit: Please refer to Operation Instructions-Functional Buttons
Battery: Charge the battery when 
is displayed on the screen. It takes 2-3 hours to fully charge the battery.
Calibration
Date/Time
In shutdown state, long press and press twice. Increment and decrement are done throught the buttons and .
Long press the @ button to confirm. Long press @ + @ to exit setting mode.
COz
Note: COC function has been calibrated before delivery. If the value is greatly deviated from the standard, you can calibrate it by either methods below:
Automatic calibration
A37 has the built-in self-correcting ABC (Automatic Baseline Correction) algorithm to automatically adjust the base value.
- Turn on the monitor and leave A37 at a place where there is flowing fresh air for 3 days (powered by the adaptor)
- ABC function will automatically adjust and correct the CO2 standard value.
Warnings: ABC function is always on, do not use this monitor in closed environment where COC concentration remains relatively
Manual calibration
- Turn on the monitor, leave it outdoor for 20 minutes
- Long press until appears on the screen. Calibration takes 10 symbol disappears when calibration is done.
symbol disappears when calibration is done.
Note: It is suggested to calibrate the monitor in outdoor environments where there is air flow. Keep device away from animals, plants and human.
