the monitor will beep two (2) times and will return to the Calibration Check function after five (5)
seconds.
If the monitor fails the Pressure Check, the Message Window will display "Leak", the monitor will

incorrectly fail the Plug Tube check. Should the monitor fail the Plug Tube Pressure Check,
obtain a 500 ml Pressure Cylinder and follow the 500 ml Pressure Check.
