The standard instrument will calculate and display CIE Whiteness and ASTM E313 
Whiteness. 
If the desired display is already enabled, and the arrow keys are set to 

Toggle Display

then you will be able to use the arrow keys to examine the Whiteness of any sample. 
 
To enable Whiteness display follow the path: 
 

Ready-to-Measure 
 

MODE to Pick 

 

UP to Setup 

 

MODE to Display Mode 

 

 

MODE to Display enable. 

 

You will now see either

or 
 
 
 
 
 
If you wish to be able to display CIE Whiteness and the screen reads DISABLED press 
the square

 MODE

 key to change the screen to read ENABLED. 

 
Now press the 

DOWN

 arrow key and you should see either
