1. Znajdź komorę baterii z tyłu urządzenia (patrz rysunek 2).
2. Odsuń pokrywę baterii.
3. Włóż 3 baterie AAA, zwracając uwagę na prawidłową biegunowość (+/-).
4. Dokładnie zamknij pokrywę baterii.
5. The device will automatically power on and begin calibration.

3.3. Umieszczenie

Place the detector in the lowest lived-in area of your home, such as a basement or ground floor. Ensure it is at least 20 inches (50 cm) from the floor and 4 inches (10 cm) from other objects. Avoid placing it near windows, doors, or ventilation systems that could affect readings.

4. Instrukcja obsługi

4.1. Zrozumienie wyświetlacza

The LCD screen displays two main readings:

• Long Term Average: This is the average radon concentration since the device was last reset or powered on. This reading becomes more accurate over time.
• Short Term Average: This displays the average radon concentration over the last 24 hours (default) or 7 days. Use the 'Mode' button to switch between these short-term views.

A flashing dot in the upper right corner indicates that the device is actively taking measurements.

4.2. Interpreting Radon Levels

The device provides guidance on interpreting your long-term average readings:

• 0-2 pCi/L: Continue to monitor.
• 2-4 pCi/L: Ventilate and monitor.
• 4+ pCi/L: Contact a professional and keep monitoring.

It is recommended to monitor for at least 24 hours for initial results, and for 7 days for a more stable long-term average. Radon levels naturally fluctuate with ventilation and weather, so longer measurements provide a more representative average.

4.3. Generating a Radon Report

The Corentium Home allows you to generate a radon self-inspection report. Connect the device to your computer via the micro USB port (located on the side, not included). Follow the instructions provided on the Airthings website to download your data and create a printable report.

• Wymień baterie na nowe.

6.2. Niespójne odczyty

• Ensure the device has been running for at least 24 hours for initial readings and 7 days for a stable short-term average. Long-term averages become more accurate over longer periods.
• Verify the device is placed in an optimal location, away from direct drafts, windows, or extreme temperature fluctuations.
• Radon levels naturally fluctuate. Continuous monitoring provides a more representative average.

6.3. Resetowanie urządzenia

To clear all historical data and restart monitoring, use a pointed object (like a toothpick) to press the 'Reset' button located on the back of the device (refer to Figure 2). This will reset all averages to zero and begin a new measurement cycle.
