Operating Manual for the Accurate pH 3 Meter

1. Remove the electrode protector and switch the meter to the ON position.
2. If using this meter for the first time or the meter has not been used for a long time, it needs
calibration for accurate readings. Skip to the calibration section. Then return to step 3.
3. Dip the meter's electrode into a small sample of the solution to be tested. Stir gently, stop and
wait for the displayed value to stabilize. The readout number is the pH value of the solution.
Note: Never dip the meter into a large body of solution as you may drop it in and ruin the
meter. Test small samples only. See pictures.
4. Immediately after finishing your test, dip or rinse the electrode in distilled water. Stir gently.
Then use tissue paper to blot the excess water from the meter's body and the electrode's glass
bulb. Replace cap. Note: Do not allow the solution that you are testing to dry on the glass
electrode or allow the glass electrode to dry. Also, blotting action must be carefully done in
order not to damage the glass bulb.
5. When storing the pH meter switch the unit to the OFF position. Complete step 4. After step 4,
put a few drops of Store It! storage solution on the sponge inside the cap to keep the glass
bulb moist but not soaking. Then put the cap onto the pH meter and store it in a cool place out
of direct sunlight and moisture. For extended storage time take the batteries out of the meter.
As with any pH meter of this caliber, do not allow the electrode to dry out, as this will shorten
the meter's life. Dry glass electrode syndrome is not covered under this warranty. Do not store
with the meter's electrode submerged in water or solutions.
6. If the unit cannot be switched ON or the display fades replace all of the old batteries with new
batteries. Use only one brand of batteries. Never mix battery brands.
