How to Install or Change the Sensor
A new TEK-Mate is shipped with its sensor packed separately. The sensor must
be installed before use. This specialized sensor will operate for about 100 hours
before it will need to be replaced.
1. Remove the rubber sensor cover by lifting at the outer edge.
2. If you are replacing a worn out sensor, remove the worn out sensor by pulling
it straight out of the socket and discard it.

The worn out sensor may be hot.
3. Remove the new sensor from its packaging and carefully align the three sensor
leads (small wires coming out of the bottom of the "can") with the three holes in
the sensor socket. Insert the leads into the holes by gently pressing straight
down on the sensor until the sensor leads contact the bottom of the socket. Be
careful not to bend the sensor leads. See
4. Reinstall the rubber sensor cover by pressing it down firmly around the edges.
Be sure the edges of the cover are flat against the surface of the detector.
