Default Defi Gauge - Needle

Just bought a Defi Fuel Pressure guage. Brand new in the box, all seals untampered with etc etc. But the needle isnt sat at Zero, its nearer 2 bar

Is this normal, will it reset once its powered up?? or is it broken like a bad 'un?

Any advice much appreciated.
Cheers

Yes, all three of mine weren't at zero whern I bought them. I bought at Scoobymania, queried it at the time, and was told, "They will go to zero once powered up, and problems, we'll replace them".

Had no problems since, apart from my earth connection fell off, (my fault)

Excellent alcazar. Just managed to get the last set Im sure in the country of Defi-link set up. Thats why I was worrying about not being able to exchange them. Its only taken me 2 weeks on the phone in UK, America & Japan.
Cheers
