2.0    Cleaning and maintenance

Cleaning the Commercial Truncheon Meter probe frequently ensures accurate 

readings. Clean the probe with a liquid scourer cream used in home bathrooms 

and kitchens such as ‘Jif’, ‘Liquid Vim’, ‘Soft Scrub’, ‘Cif’, or ‘Viss’. Never use 

scented varieties of cleaner as they affect the probe functions.

Remove shroud

Twist the shroud 90 degrees and then remove the 

shroud. 

Clean probe face

Place one or two drops of unscented liquid scourer, 

such as ‘Jif’, ‘Liquid Vim’, ‘Soft Scrub’, ‘Cif, or ‘Viss’ 

on the probe face. Rub probe face with your finger or 

Bluelab Chamois firmly and vigorously to clean.

Rinse probe

Rinse off all traces of cleaner under running water 

using the same finger or other side of Bluelab 

Chamois. Check that the water forms a film on the 

probe face with no ‘beads’ of water. If beading is 

present repeat the cleaning process.

Replace shroud

3.0    Battery replacement

The Commercial Truncheon Meter is powered with 3 x AA type standard or 

alkaline batteries. Do not use rechargeable batteries. Do not mix brands of 

batteries. Do not mix old with new. Do not put upside down. Follow these steps 

to replace the batteries.

Remove old batteries

Unfasten battery cap and tip out old batteries.

Check for corrosion

Batteries that have been inside the unit for a long length 

of time may corrode. Check battery contacts and batteries 

for any sign of corrosion. Contacts should be cleaned first if 

corrosion is found before proceeding to step 3. 

Fit new batteries

Insert the new batteries positive (+) end down into the body.

Replace battery cap

Refasten battery cap. There must be no space left between 

the cap and body to ensure the unit remains 100% 

waterproof.
