5. Instruccions de funcionament
5.1 Encès/Apagat
- Activar: Hold down the Power Key (&#x23x21; ) for more than 1 second. After a buzzer beep, the screen will light up, and the device enters the test state.
- Apagar: While the detector is on, press the Power Key (&#x23x21; ) to shut down the machine.
5.2 Function Key (Brake Oil Type Selection)
The default brake oil type is DOT3. To switch between types:
- Press the Function Key (F) once to switch to DOT4.
- Press it again to switch to DOT5.1.
- Press it a third time to cycle back to DOT3.
5.3 Moisture Detection
- After powering on, select the appropriate brake oil type (DOT3, DOT4, or DOT5.1) using the Function Key.
- Ensure the metal probe is clean before testing.
- Fully immerse the metal part of the detection head into the brake fluid you wish to test. Hold it for approximately 3 seconds until the display stabilizes.
- Observe the display and read the numerical value. The device provides a three-color backlight indication and an audio-visual alarm based on moisture content:
- 0-2% Moisture: Green backlight. Brake fluid is still usable.
- 2-3% Moisture: Yellow backlight with a slow beep. Brake fluid replacement is recommended.
- >3% Moisture: Red backlight with a fast beep. Urgent brake fluid replacement is required.
5.4 Retenció de dades
- During measurement, press the Hold/Light Key (H/&#x23x21;C) to hold the displayed data.
- Press the key again to release the data hold function.
5.5 LED Flashlight Illumination
- When measuring in low-light environments, long press the Hold/Light Key (H/&#x23x21;C) to turn on the LED flashlight.
- Long press the key again to turn off the flashlight.
5.6 Apagat automàtic
To conserve battery life, the device will automatically shut down after approximately 5 minutes of no signal detection or inactivity.
6. Manteniment
6.1 Neteja de la sonda
It is essential to protect the metal probe. Corrosion, scratches, or oxidation on the metal probe can potentially affect the accuracy of detection. After testing any liquid, please clean the detection head thoroughly with a wet cloth. Ensure the test pen is completely dry before storing or subsequent use.
6.2 Indicació de bateria baixa
Quan la bateria voltage drops below 2.6V, the screen will display a battery icon (&#x23x26;#x21; ). If the voltage drops further to 2.4V, the detector will automatically power off. Replace the batteries promptly when the low battery indicator appears to ensure uninterrupted testing.
6.3 Calibration Resistor Socket
The device includes a built-in calibration resistor socket. By inserting the probes into this socket, you can simulate different measurement environments to verify the detector's measuring accuracy.
7. Solució De Problemes
| Problema | Causa possible | Solució |
|---|---|---|
| El dispositiu no s'encén. | Piles baixes o gastades; instal·lació incorrecta de la bateria. | Replace batteries with new 1.5V AAA batteries, ensuring correct polarity. |
| Lectures inexactes. | Dirty, corroded, scratched, or broken probe; insufficient immersion of probe; incorrect brake fluid type selected. | Clean the probe thoroughly and ensure it is dry.
