ELECTRODE MAINTENANCE
• When not in use, rinse the electrodes with water to
minimize contamination and store them with a few
drops of HI 70300 storage solution in the protective
cap after use. DO NOT USE DISTILLED OR DEION-
IZED WATER FOR STORAGE PURPOSES.
• If the electrodes have been left dry, soak in storage
solution for at least one hour to reactivate them.
• To prolong the life of the electrodes, it is recom-
mended to clean them monthly by immersing them in
the HI 7061 cleaning solution for half an hour.
Afterwards, rinse it thoroughly with tap water and
recalibrate the meter.
• The pH electrode can be easily replaced by using
the supplied tool (HI 73128). Insert the tool into the
probe cavity as shown below.

To turn the meter on and to check battery status
Press and hold the
/MODE button until the LCD
lights up. All the used segments on the LCD will be
visible for 1 second (or as long as the button is
pressed), followed by the percent indication of the
remaining battery life (E.g. % 100 BATT).

the calibration mode displaying “pH 7.01 USE” (or
“pH 6.86 USE” if the NIST buffer set was selected).
After 1 second the meter activates the automatic buffer
recognition feature. If a valid buffer is detected then its
value is shown on the primary display and REC
appears on the secondary LCD. If no valid buffer is
detected, the meter keeps the USE indication active for
12 seconds, and then it replaces it with WRNG,
indicating the sample being measured is not a valid
buffer.

• For a single-point calibration with buffers pH 4.01,
