SECTION 2 PREPARING THE METER
2.1 UNPACKING
When you unpack your new YSI Model 30 Handheld Conductivity, Salinity & Temperature System
for the first time, check the packing list to make sure you have received everything you should have.
If there is anything missing or damaged, call the dealer from whom you purchased the Model 30. If
you do not know which of our authorized dealers sold the system to you, call YSI Customer Service
at 800-765-4974 or 937-767-7241, and we'll be happy to help you.
2.2 WARRANTY CARD
Before you do anything else, please complete the Warranty Card and return it to YSI. This will
record your purchase of this quality instrument in our computer system. Once your purchase is
recorded, you will receive prompt, efficient service in the event any part of your YSI Model 30
should ever need repair.
2.3 BATTERIES
There are a few things you must do to prepare your YSI Model 30 for use. First, locate the six AA-
size alkaline batteries that were included. Use a screwdriver or a small coin to remove the
thumbscrew on the bottom of the instrument. This thumbscrew holds the battery-chamber cover in
place. The battery-chamber cover is marked with the words "OPEN" and "CLOSE."
NOTE: On some models, the battery cover thumbscrew may be unscrewed by hand (a screwdriver
may not be required).
