OPERATING INSTRUCTION
Do not screw the probe cap at the bottom of the pH meter, pull it out directly!
* Hold Feature
A flashing dot will be displayed during the measuring mode, Press HOLD to freeze the current reading. Press HOLD
again to release the hold mode.
*Temperature Measurement ℃or ℉
The default temperature measurement is ℃.If you need to convert temperature measurement, operating in
accordance with the following method:While the meter is off, press CAL and ON/OFF at the same time until the ‘℃’
or ‘℉’appears on the LCD. Press CAL to select the‘℃’or ‘℉’,after selecting press HOLD to save after selecting . The
display will show the symbol 'SA'and then back to normal
* Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC)
The product is capable of measuring the temperature and making compensation automatically, ‘ATC’ shows at the
left corner of the screen.
* Calibration
1. Prepare 4.01, 6.86 and 9.18 pH buffers, Use 6.86 pH buffer for the mid-range buffer first. The pH values for the
buffers are given for 25 °C. If the sample temperature is not 25 °C, the pH values displayed for the buffers will
reflect the correct pH value for the sample temperature. If the electrode is dry, submerge it in distilled water for 10
minutes before calibration. Ensure that the calibrating buffers are fresh.
2. Press ON/OFF to turn the meter on, submerge the probe in the buffer while stir gently. Then keep it still until a
stable reading is reached. Press CAL for 3 seconds until the Text ‘CAL’ appears. Then release CAL, the meter will
identify the current buffer value automatically, and display 6.86 in the LCD. The result will be saved while the text
‘SA’ displayed after 2 seconds. The meter will back to measuring mode after 1 second while text ‘End’ showed.
3. If text ‘End’ is showed after press CAL, it means the calibration buffer is not fresh or the probe is aging.
4. Do not take out the probe from the buffer until text ‘End’ is showed in the LCD.
5. Same steps as calibrating pH 4.01 and 9.18.
