follow these steps: 

1.  Set the frequency weighting of the calibrator to A-weighting (dBA). 
2.  Carefully insert the microphone into the insertion hole of the calibrator (94 dB @ 1kHz). 
3.  Turn on the calibration and use the potentiometer (calibrat6ion screw) on the side of the device 

(see #12 in chapter 4.1) to adjust the displayed value, until 94.0 dB is shown. 

 
Note: Every device is calibrated before the delivery. We recommend a recalibration once a year.
