ture. The instrument should be at operating or room temperature (avoid condensation
on optical and electrical surfaces).

Storing the calibration aids
3.2.1
Checking unit
WARNING!
Incorrect measurement following the use of a defective checking unit for recalibra-
tion.
The supplied checking unit has been adapted to the instrument If a defective checking unit is
used for recalibration, the measuring accuracy of the instrument may be affected. If recali-
bration cannot be made due to the loss of the checking unit, the measuring accuracy of the
instrument also cannot be guaranteed.
A subsequently purchased checking unit is always delivered without values and first has
to be calibrated to a serviced instrument.
Store the checking unit in a protected, defined location.
3.2.2
Calibration solutions
WARNING!
Incorrect measurement following the use of an incorrect or expired calibration solu-
tion for recalibration.
If an incorrect or expired calibration solution is used for recalibration, the measuring accura-
cy of the instrument may be affected. If recalibration cannot be made due to the loss of the
calibration solutions, the measuring accuracy of the instrument also cannot be guaranteed.
Always ensure that the correct calibration solution is used (e.g. pH 4).
Pay attention to the indicated expiry date and order a new calibration solution in good
time.
Always store the calibration solution according to the prescribed storage conditions (in a
dark place at room temperature).
Store the calibration solution in a defined location.
