3. Use guidelines

The product is designed for real-time monitoring of formaldehyde and TVOC levels in the air. The TVOC readings are measured using a semiconductor sensor, which requires a warm-up period before use. Measurement units for both formaldehyde and TVOC can be switched between PPM and mg/m³ by pressing a button.

This instrument also includes several useful modes: Maximum Measurement Mode, Minimum Measurement Mode, and HOLD Mode. Additionally, it comes equipped with a toggleable auto shut-off function, backlight control, and a low battery indicator.

The user is liable for any damage resulting from unintended use of the device.
