How to Set Daily Rest on the Digital Tachograph

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this video, we can see how to set daily rest on the digital tachograph: with the card inserted, press button number 1 a couple of times until the bed icon appears, then choose the country using the up arrow, and hold button number 1 until the card is ejected. You need to check where button number 1 is positioned: if it is on "hammers", which means "other work", it is not correct, press again until the bed icon is displayed and leave it on this display, so that when the next day you insert the card again, it will have recorded all that time as a break.
