1. Important information
Befor e using this instrument, car efully r ead and observe all notes
contained in these operating instructions.
Fundamentally , skilled personnel only should use the Wöhler

fied data range. No liability is accepted under any circumstances
or guarantee given for r esults determined in conjunction with this
instrument nor for any damage that may arise when using this
instrument.
Recovering time is r equired when the meter was exposed to high
level CO. The longer the exposur e, the longer r ecovering time is
needed.
2. Specification
2.1 Application
The Wöhler CM 220 is a digital pen type CO meter that can be used for do -
mestic purposes to check fur naces, r oom heaters, central heating fur naces,
water heaters etc. as well as for commer cial purposes, e.g. the ventilation
contr ol of indoor parking garages.
The electr ochemical sensor garantizes an exact measur ement even if other
gases interfer e.

4. Operation Instructions
4.1 Power on/off
Press the power -key to tur n on and tur n of f the meter (see fig 3.2, key 2).
When the meter is power ed on, the pr eset alarm value and curr ent air tempe-
rature will be blinking on the LCD. The meter is now running a self-test and
will finish in about 15 seconds with a short beep. It will then enter the measu-
ring mode.
Figur e. 4.1: Display during the self-test
Important: It is recommended to turn on the meter in an area free of CO
since high CO level may cause failure in passing Self-Test.
4.2 Switch temperature units
Users can select °C or °F as the temperatur e unit by pr essing the backlight
key (see fig. 3.2, key 1) for more than 1 second during the self-test.
4.3 Alarm setting
The alarm value of the meter is pr eset at 25 ppm to give war nings of possible
danger . Users can adjust the value for dif ferent needs or standar d by tur ning
off the meter , then pr ess and hold the power -key (see fig. 3.2, key 1) until
the value options appear in the display . Ther e ar e 10, 25, 30, 35, 45, 50, 70
and 100 ppm displaying in cycles. Release the button to select the pr eferred
value. Then the meter will r eturn to Self-T est mode in some seconds.

4.4 Measurement
The meter measur es the CO concentration at the sensor and displays the
reading in ppm. It also indicates the maximum value (at the lower side of the
display) of all r eadings since it is power ed on. Users can r eset the maximum
value by pr essing the backlight-key for two seconds in the measuring mode.
4.5 Backlight
The meter featur es backlight function for using in dark ar eas. Pr ess the back-
light to activate and switch of f the backlight. (Figur e 3.2, key 1).
4.6 Low battery indicator
The low battery indicator appears in the display when the battery voltage gets
low. The measur ed values may be mor e inexact now . In this case you have to
change the batteries.
4.7 Auto power off
The meter tur ns itself of f automatically after 15 minutes non-operation. (It will
not auto power of f during the calibration).
5. 0-ppm-Calibration
Calibrate the meter in an ar ea free of CO. T o enter the calibration mode, tur n
off the meter and pr ess the power -key and the backlight-key simultaneous-
ly for two seconds. „ppm“ will blink in the upper display and the calibration
value „0“ at the lower side. Now the meter is running the 0 ppm calibration as
a default.
Now the meter calibrates automatically . The LCD is displaying a blinking
ppm value and it stops blinking when the calibration is completed. This takes
about 10 minutes.
Note: Do not be alarmed if high ppm or minus value shows up when entering
the calibration mode. It will go down and appr oach to 0 in seconds.

6. Troubleshooting
Problem Solution
The meter is switched on but
there is no display .
a) Make sur e that the batteries ar e in
good contact and corr ect polarity .
b) Replace a new battery and try again.
The display disappears. If the low battery indicator was shown
before the display disappear ed, r eplace
a new battery .
Calibration failur e If the low battery indicator was shown
before the calibration, r eplace a new
battery.
E 2 The value is underflow.
E 3 The value is overflow.
E 31 und E 33 Retur n the meter to the dealer for r epai-
ring.
E 35 a) Self-T est failur e: Turn on the meter
again in other ar ea free of CO.
b) Sensor failur e: Retur n the meter to
the dealer for r epairing.
