The sensor should be kept moist at all times. For this
purpose, always keep wet the tissue inside the
protective cap. In case of erroneous readings even
after an accurate conditioning and calibration, the
reference junction might be contaminated or clogged.
Pull out 2 mm (1/8'') of
the cloth junction to renew
the electrode reference (it is
recommended to cut the cloth
leaving always at least 2
mm -1/8'' over the refer-
ence compartment) and re-
peat the calibration proce-
dure.
The cloth junction can be pulled out approximately
20 times. After that, the  electrode can be replaced
(see the Electrode Replacement section).
