CALIBRATION CHECK®
Turn the meter ON by pressing ON/OFF button. The “CAL”
message on the display indicates that the meter is performing an
automatic calibration check. If the test is successful the display
will show “0”. If the calibration check fails and the meter requires
recalibration, the display will show “Err”. Contact your local Hanna
Instruments Office for recalibration. It is recommended to recalibrate
the thermometer once a year.
After performing the calibration check, the instrument will
automatically enter the normal measurement mode.
