* Select whether calibration is performed by filling or draining. The Filling method is recommended as it is more accurate. If you select the Drain method, you cannot be sure what exact amount of fuel is in the tank and whether the tank is full or not. | * Select whether calibration is performed by filling or draining.

An example of calibration by filling in portions of 10 liters and imagine that in this case there are 10 liters in the tank that cannot be removed and when the sensor is placed in the tank it immediately shows the value 115 instead of 1. | An example of calibration by filling in portions of 10 liters and imagine that in this case there are 10 liters in the tank that cannot be removed and when the sensor is placed in the tank it immediately shows the value 115 instead of 1. | ||

You add the first portion of fuel to the tank. The level should change from 115 to some other value. If the level does not change, check the sensor drain holes. They may be blocked by electrical tape, which must be removed after the sensor has been calibrated. If the holes are blocked, the air inside the tubes will prevent fuel from getting inside the tubes. | You add the first portion of fuel to the tank.
