Maintenance 

CLEANING AND STORAGE 

1. The meter should be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild

detergent when necessary. Do not use solvents or abrasives.

2. Store the meter in an area with moderate temperature and

humidity (see specifications section above).

TROUBLESHOOTING 

No Power 

Check that the AC adaptor is properly connected. 

Slow response

 

Ensure that air flow channels on the back of meter are not blocked.
