✱
Briefly press the
key.
The state of the pH combination electrode will be displayed for approx. 3
seconds after every calibration.
100%
The combination electrode is in very good condition
90 — 30%
The state of the combination electrode is satisfactory
less than
30%
The combination electrode is severely aged or contaminated.
If there is no improvement after cleaning (see Chapter 7.2
“Cleaning”, page 27) and a subsequent calibration, then the
combination electrode must be replaced.
