Bread & Dough pH Tester

INSTRUCTION MANUAL

Auto-Off

From measurement mode, press and hold 
the ON/OFF button. The LCD will show 
"OFF", "CAL" followed by "d08" (default 
setting, 8 minutes). Release the ON/OFF 
button. A single press on the ON/OFF button 
will change the auto-off timer to "d60" (60 
minutes). To disable the auto-off feature 
press the ON/OFF button again, LCD will 
show "d--". Press and hold to exit.

Clear Calibration

To clear the user calibration and restore the 
tester to factory default. From calibration 
mode, press and hold the ON/OFF button, 
the LCD will show "CLr".

“Err” Message

In calibration mode, if the probe is in the 
correct buffer solution and the "Err" message 
is displayed, the probe should be cleaned. 
Soak the probe in cleaning solution for 
20 minutes. Rinse with water and hydrate 
electrode in storage solution for a minimum 
of 30 minutes before calibrating.

Battery Indicator

When the battery level is low, the tag on the 
LCD will blink. When the battery is depleted 
the "Erb" message is displayed and the tester 
is powered off.

Care & Maintenance

Please read the information below, to ensure the highest possible accuracy:
• Fresh buffer should be used for each calibration, once the sachets are opened 

the buffer value can change over time.

• For improved accuracy a two-point calibration is recommended.
• If the electrode is slow or sluggish, soak it in cleaning solution for 20 

minutes. Rinse with water and hydrate the electrode in storage solution for a 

minimum of 30 minutes before calibrating.

• If measurements are taken successively, rinse the probe thoroughly in 

distilled or deionized water to eliminate cross-contamination.

• When not in use, add a few drops of storage solution to the protective cap 

to keep the glass tip and the junction hydrated. If storage solution is not 

available, pH 4.01 or pH 7.01 buffer can be used. Never store the probe in 

distilled or deionized water.

Note: 

Never immerse the tester over the maximum immersion level.

Battery Replacement

To change the CR2032 lithium-ion battery, turn 

the battery cover, located on the back of the tester, 

counterclockwise to unlock. Remove cover and 

replace the battery with positive (+) side facing out.

Note: 

Only use the battery type specified in 

the manual. Old batteries should be disposed 

in accordance with local regulations.
