Getting Started
Setting up the meter
1. Place batteries (included) into the device. Refer to Battery
Replacement section of this manual.
2. Remove the sample cup in order to access the probes.
3. Remove the sleeve which protects the probes.
4. Calibrate the probe prior to first use and every month by referring to
the Calibration section of this manual.
Measurement
1. Fill the bottom 1/3 of the sample cup with the water sample. Make
sure to collect the water at least 1.5” from the surface. The other
option is to submerse the probes directly into the water sample.
2. Press the button.
The most recent measurement will always appear along with the
icon.
3. Remove the sleeve and attach it to holding area. Immerse the
Safedip probe in the water sample. Make sure the probes are
completely submersed.
4. Press the START button to begin a new measurement.
5. During the new measurement, the will blink before all stabilized
parameters are achieved.
6. When measurement is finished, a beep will be heard and newest
data will be displayed. The data will be saved in the memory until the
next measurement. Only the latest measurement is stored and all
prior measurements are discarded.
7. In order to view the latest readings at anytime, press .
8. If a new measurement is desired, repeat steps 3-6.
9. When finished using the meter, press the once to turn the
device off. If you forget to do so, the meter will turn off automatically
after 1 minute.
10. Always rinse the probes with fresh tap water after use. Replace
