User Interface
The ToxiRAE 3’s user interface consists of the

[MODE] and [Y/+]. The LCD display provides
visual feedback that includes calibration or bump
request, sensor mode, and battery condition.

Press and hold [MODE]. The display shows “On” and
the sensor type, and then alarms and sensor are tested.
Note:
If the sensor is depleted or does not check out
satisfactorily, an error message of “E01” flashes on
the display. The ToxiRAE 3 should not be used. (Shut
off the ToxiRAE 3 by pressing and holding [MODE]
until you see the countdown and the display shows
“oFF.”).
Once the countdown is complete, a battery icon that
indicates battery condition. “OK” is displayed below
the battery icon, and the reading is also shown (for
example 0 ppm). The ToxiRAE 3 is now in Normal
Mode and is ready for use.
Turning The ToxiRAE 3 Off
Press and hold [MODE]. In 2 seconds, a 5-second
countdown to shutoff begins. You must hold your
finger on the key for the entire shutoff process. If
you remove your finger from the key during the
