MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE
• Turn the meter on by
pressing ON/OFF.
• When the LCD displays
“- - -”, it is ready.
• Fill the cuvet up to 1.5 cm
(¾”) below the rim with
10 mL of unreacted sample,
and replace the cap.
• Place the cuvet into the
holder and ensure that the
notch on the cap is
positioned securely into the
groove.
• Press ZERO and “SIP” will appear on the display.
• Wait for a few seconds and
the display will show
“-0.0-”. Now the meter is
zeroed and ready for
measurement.
• Remove the cuvet.
• Add the content of one packet of HI 93709A-0 Manganese
HR Reagent A. Replace the cap and shake gently.

• Add the content of one packet of HI 93709B-0
Manganese HR Reagent B. Replace the cap and shake
gently.
• Reinsert the cuvet into the
instrument.
• Press READ TIMED and the display will show the
countdown prior to the measurement, or, alternatively
wait for 1 minute and 30 seconds and press READ
DIRECT. In both cases “SIP” will appear during
measurement.
• The instrument directly displays concentration in mg/L of
manganese on the Liquid Crystal Display.
INTERFERENCES
Interference may be caused by:
Calcium above 700 mg/L
Chloride above 70000 mg/L
Iron above 5 mg/L
Magnesium above 100000 mg/L.

The instruction listed below should be carefully followed
during testing to ensure best accuracy.
• Do not touch the cuvet walls with hands.
• In order to maintain the same conditions during the
zeroing and the measuring phases, it is necessary to
close the cuvet to prevent any contamination.
• Do not let the test sample stand too long after reagent
is added or accuracy will be lost.
• Whenever the cuvet is placed into the measurement cell,
it must be completely free of fingerprints, oil or dirt.
Wipe it thoroughly with
HI 731318
or a lint-free cloth
prior to insertion.
• It is important that the sample does not contain any
debris. This would corrupt the readings.
• It is possible to take multiple readings in a row, but it
is recommended that a zero reading be taken for each
sample and that the same cuvet is used for zeroing and
measurement.
• It is important to discard the sample immediately after
the reading is taken because the glass might become
permanently stained.
• Shaking the cuvet can generate bubbles in the sample,
causing higher readings. To obtain accurate measure-
ments, remove such bubbles by swirling or by gently
tapping the vial.
• All the reaction times reported in this manual are
referred to 20°C (68°F). As a general rule of thumb,
they should be doubled at 10°C (50°F) and halved at
30°C (86°F).
Battery replacement must only take place in a non-hazardous
area using a 9V alkaline battery.
Simply slide off the battery cover on the back of the meter.
Detach the battery from the terminals and attach a fresh 9V
battery while paying attention to the correct polarity. Replace
the battery and the cover.

Recommendations for Users
Before using these products, make sure that they are entirely suitable for the environ-
ment in which they are used.
Operation of these instruments in residential area could cause unacceptable interferences
to radio and TV equipments, requiring the operator to take all necessary steps to correct
interferences.
Any variation introduced by the user to the supplied equipment may degrade the
instruments' EMC performance.
To avoid damages or burns, do not perform any measurement in microwave ovens.
