General Operation

Refer to the illustrations on page 3 of this manual.

to keep the electrode in a good storage condition.
2. Dip the electrode into the test solution. Press PWR and stir
the pH meter to get a stable reading.

4. Press HLD to freeze the current reading. Note that the dot
will stop flashing. Press HLD again to release the reading.
5. Turn off the meter by pressing PWR. Cover the electrode
with the cap and store the meter at an ambient temperature
between 0°C ~ 50°C (32°F ~ 122°F). Refer to
"7.4. Calibrating your Meter" to perform the 3-points
calibration.
