Switch on the Condair Cube: To do this, press the power button inside the cavity on the lower, left side of the cube (see product overview). Note: When the Condair Cube is plugged in via the USB cable, it switches on automatically. Fully charge the device before using it for the first time. 2. Place the Condair Cube upright in the room where you want to check the room air. The Cube must be placed as shown in the figure below, so that the sensor on the back of the Cube is reached by the room air and the excess heat can escape through the ventilation slots. 3. Once the Condair Cube is in place, it requires an adjustment time of approx. 20 minutes until all values are displayed correctly. In particular, the temperature may deviate during the first phase after switching on, since the sensor is not yet at operating temperature. 4. When the Condair Cube is put into operation for the first time, it must be calibrated. This procedure is described in chapter 5. 6 Quickstart 4 Product overview 4.1 Components � 1 housing from 2 parts � Display with rechargeable battery (M5core2) � Sensor (Sensirion SCD40) � USB charging cable � Optional Micro SD card (not included in delivery) Button1 Button 2 Display Housing Ventilation slots LED (green) Slot for Micro SD card Sensor Power button USB charging cable port Product overview 7 4.2 Main screen view Time Date Humidity value Menu 10:15 21.08.2021 85% CCOO22 1092 ppm 28 21 %RH �C Battery status CO2 value Temperature value Time/Date: Battery status: CO2 value: Temperature value: Humidity value: Menu bar: Button 1: Button 2: LED: Shows the current time and date.

Product overview 9 4.3 Application overviews 4.3.1 View health chart 10:15 21.08.2021 800 CO2 1200 80% 85% ppm 60% 40% 20% 18�C 22�C 26�C CO2 display in bar format Currently measured value Range "healthy" Range "acceptable" Temperature Air humidity The range "healthy" represents the air quality, which provides increased health protection and is perceived as pleasant. The ranges "healthy, "acceptable" and "critical" are distinguished. The aim is that the current measured value (red point) of the room air is in the inner green diamond and thus in the "healthy" range. In the upper area of the view, the currently measured CO2 content of the room air is displayed in a bar view. If the current measured value is outside the green range, the room should be ventilated to reduce the CO2 content in the room. Note: If the currently measured value is displayed as a gray dot at the edge of the diagram, it indicates that the measured value is outside the displayed range. 10 Product overview 4.3.2 View historical readings 10:15 21.08.2021 21 �C �C 26 22 18 1 2 3 85% h 4 Currently measured value Historical measured values This view shows the course of the measured room temperature over a maximum of 4 hours. For every 10 minutes of measurement, a bar is displayed which shows the average value measured. This is colored according to the described traffic light system. See chapter chapter 4.2.1. If the bar is yellow or red, the temperature was too low or too high on average over the last 10 minutes, taking the health chart into account. A 4-hour chart is available for all measured values of CO2, temperature and humidity. These views are accessible via the arrow keys on the side of the circle. 4.3.3 Settings 10:15 21.08.2021 CO2 85% Alarm settings Calibration CO2 Time and date settings Via the 3 icons you can call the different submenus: � Alarm settings � Calibration CO2 � Time and date settings Tap once on the respective icon to enter the submenus. Product overview 11 5 Calibration For accurate measurement results of the CO2 content, the Condair Cube must be calibrated regularly. Two different calibration options are available: � Auto calibration � Manual calibration 5.1 Manual Calibration To calibrate the sensor manually, proceed as follows: 1. Menu Settings Calibration CO2 10:15 21.08.2021 85% CO2 CO2 Manual CO2 Auto 2. Place the sensor outdoors, for example outside the window in fresh air. Outside air is used as a reference, since it normally has a value of approx. 400 ppm. 10:15 21.08.2021 85% Start 3. Press "Start" to start calibration. 12 Calibration 4. The measurement takes approx. 3 minutes This is displayed graphically with a bar graph and a percentage. The sensor resets its CO2 value several times during this time. 10:15 21.08.2021 85% CO2 21 ppm 44% 5. After the calibration is completed, the Cube automatically switches to the main page. 10:15 21.08.2021 85% CCOO22 1092 ppm 28 21 %RH �C 6. Check the CO2 value. If it is within the range of 400 +/-25 ppm, the calibration was successful. If the value is above or below this, repeat the calibration. Important: The sensor must be calibrated during the first start-up. Also, if you place the Cube in a new geographical location, it must be recalibrated for accurate measurement results. Calibration 13 5.2 Auto calibration By default, the auto calibration is activated, whereby the sensor calibrates its value independently. It is important here that the sensor is in operation as permanently as possible and is exposed to fresh outside air at least once a week (approx. 10 min). During auto-calibration, the lowest measured value over one week is taken as the reference value and recalibrated to 400 ppm. Note: This setting is also saved when the cube is switched off. 1. Menu Settings Calibration CO2 2. Auto calibration 3. Enable or disable auto calibration If the Condair Cube is not operated permanently, it is recommended to deactivate the auto calibration and to perform a manual calibration when using the Condair Cube. 10:15 21.08.2021 85% CO2 CO2 Manual CO2 Auto CO2 Auto OFF 14 Calibration 6 Time and date setting The Condair Cube has an internal RTC (RealTimeClock) which is used for the time and date display. Time and date run for approx. 2 months when the unit is switched off and without charging the Cube. Afterwards, both must be reset. Follow the procedure below to reset the time and date: 1. Menu Settings Time and date settings 10:15 21.08.2021 85% CO2 2. Set the desired time using the up/down arrow keys.
