2. Fara í kvörðunarstillingu: With the meter turned on, short press the CAL button. The display will show "CAL" and the calibration value.
3. Immerse Sensor: Dip the sensor into the calibration solution. Stir gently.
4. Wait for Stability: The meter will automatically recognize the calibration solution. Wait for the smiley face icon to appear and remain stable. The calibration success symbol (M) will also appear.
5. Hætta kvörðun: Short press the MEAS button to exit calibration mode and return to measurement mode.

Athugið: Always use fresh calibration solution for each calibration. Do not pour used solution back into the bottle.

Viðhald

Skynjarahreinsun

The BPB (Brush-Resistant Platinum Black) sensor is robust but requires proper cleaning to maintain accuracy.

1. After each use, rinse the sensor thoroughly with distilled or deionized water.
2. If there is visible contamination, gently brush the sensor with a soft brush (like a soft toothbrush) while rinsing.
3. For stubborn deposits, soak the sensor in a mild detergent solution for 10-15 minutes, then rinse thoroughly.
4. Aldrei wipe the sensor with abrasive materials or apply excessive force, as this can damage the platinum black coating.

Geymsla

For long-term storage, ensure the sensor is clean and dry. Replace the protective cap. Store the meter in its carrying case in a cool, dry place.
