For the first week test the
pool water daily for free chlorine
to ensure correct dial setting.
Continue to test weekly throughout the
season.

After each testing, adjust the dial
up by 1/2 increment if the free
chlorine reading has dropped
below 0.5 ppm or adjust down by
1/2 increment if the reading has
risen above 1.0 ppm. Continue this
process each day until the free
chlorine reading stabilizes to at
least 0.5 ppm.
