Press and hold
READ/ /TIMER
for three
seconds
.
The display will show the countdown
prior to measurement (not for Hardness).
The beeper is playing a beep at the end of
countdown period.
Alternatively, wait for:
Free Chlorine:
1 minute
Total Chlorine:
2 minutes and 30 seconds
Iron LR:
30 seconds
Then press
READ/ /TIMER
.
For pH and Hardness press
READ/ /
TIMER
directly.
In all cases the lamp, cuvette and detector
icons will appear on the display, depending
on the measurement phase.
12•
The instrument directly displays the pH
measured value or the concentration in
mg/L of free chlorine, total chlorine or iron
on the LCD, depending on the selected
parameter.
For Hardness the instrument will display the concentration of
Calcium in mg/L CaCO
3
(together with ‘’C’’). Press
READ/ /
TIMER
again, the lamp, cuvette and detector icons will appear on
the display, depending on the measurement phase. The instrument
will display the total hardness concentration in mg/L CaCO
3
(together with ‘’t’’).
INTERFERENCES:
• Chlorine: Bromine, Iodine, Chlorine dioxide. Ozone and Oxidized forms
of Manganese and Chromium. Alkalinity above 250 mg/L CaCO
3
or
acidity above 150 mg/L CaCO
3
will not reliably develop the full
amount of color or it may rapidly fade. To resolve this, neutralize the
sample with diluted HCl or NaOH. In case of water with hardness
greater than 500 mg/L CaCO
3
, shake the sample for approximately 2
minutes after adding the powder reagent.
• Iron LR: Cadmium above 4.0 mg/L, C above 1.2 mg/L,
Copper above 0.6 mg/L, Manganese above 50.0 mg/L, Molybdenum
4.0 mg/L, Nitrite ion above 0.8 mg/L, Ch above 0.25
mg/L, Cobalt above 0.05 mg/L, Cyanide above 2.8 mg/L, Mercury
above 0.4 mg/L, Nickel above 1.0 mg/L.
• Total Hardness: Excessive amounts of heavy metals.
Note
: If the sample is very acidic, some extra drops of
HI 93735B
buffer
reagent may be added.
Use the Hanna CAL CHECK™ cuvettes (see
“Accessories”) to validate or calibrate instruments.

depending on the measurement phase.
9•
At the end of the measurement the display
will show the validation standard value.
The reading should be within specifications as
reported on the
CAL CHECK™
Standard
Certificate. If the value is found out of
specifications, please check that the cuvettes
are free of fingerprints, oil or dirt and repeat
validation. If results are still found out of
specifications then recalibrate the instrument.
LAST CALIBRATION DATE
1•
Press and hold
RANGE/GLP/
for three
seconds to enter
GLP mode. The calibration
month and day will appear on the main
display and the year on the secondary display.
2•
If no calibration was performed, the factory
calibration message,
“F.CAL”
will appear on
the main display and the instrument returns
to
measurement mode after three seconds.
10•
Press

Battery management
To save the battery, the instrument shuts down after 10 minutes of non-
use in
measurement mode and after 1 hour of non-use in calibration
mode.
If a valid measurement was displayed before
auto-shut off, the value is displayed when the
instrument is switched on. The blinking
“ZERO”
means that a new zero has to be performed.
One fresh battery lasts for arround 750 measurements, depending on the
light level.
The remaining battery capacity is evaluated at the instrument startup
and after each measurement.
The instrument displays a battery indicator with three levels as follows:
• 3 lines for 100 % capacity
• 2 lines for 66 % capacity
• 1 line for 33 % capacity
• Battery icon blinking if the capacity is under 10 %.
If the battery is empty and accurate measurements can’t be taken any
more, the instrument shows
“dEAd bAtt”
and turns off.
To restart the instrument, the battery must be replaced with a fresh one.
To replace the instrument’s battery, follow the steps:
• Turn the instrument off by pressing
ON/OFF
.
• Turn the instrument upside down and remove the battery cover by
turning it counterclockwise.
• Extract the battery from its location and replace it with a fresh one.
• Insert back the battery cover and turn it clockwise to close.
