3. Nastavitev
3.1 Namestitev baterije
- Poiščite pokrov predalčka za baterije na zadnji strani naprave.
- Remove the cover by twisting or sliding it according to the markings.
- Vstavite dve (2) bateriji AAA in pri tem pazite na pravilno polarnost (+/-), kot je označeno v notranjosti predala.
- Varno namestite pokrov prostora za baterije.
3.2 Začetna povezava
- Ensure the system to which the gauge will be connected is depressurized or isolated.
- Carefully thread the 1/8'' NPT fitting of the digital pressure gauge onto the appropriate port of your HVAC or refrigeration system.
- Tighten the connection firmly by hand, then use a wrench for a final snug turn to prevent leaks. Do not overtighten.
