How does Cigarette detection work?
Turn Cigarette Detection ON
The sensor will enter a Calibration mode (Keep in mind that during the calibration mode you will not receive any cigarette alerts)
Once the calibration period is over, Minut will start monitoring indoor air for cigarette smoke.
When cigarette smoke is detected, you will get notified via a push notification on your phone and an email (if you have email alerts enabled)
