counterclockwise and pull the sensor from the connection.
Replace the new sensor by inserting the electrical plug from the coiled cord
into the receptacle on the oxygen sensor. Rotate the thumbscrew clockwise
until snug. The device will automatically perform a calibration and begin
displaying % of oxygen.
