POWER CONNECTION
Plug the supplied 12 Vdc adapter into the DC socket (see page 5).
Plug the adapter to the mains.
Note: Insure the main line is fuse protected.
Note: Always turn the meter off before unplugging it to ensure no
data is lost.
MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE
• Turn the meter on by pressing ON/OFF.
• The meter will first perform an LCD self
diagnostic test by displaying a full set of
figures. It will then switch to the measure-
ment mode.
• When the LCD displays “----”, the meter is
ready.
• Fill a clean cuvette up to 0.5 cm (1/4’’)
from its rim with the thoroughly agitated
sample.
• Allow sufficient time for bubbles to escape
before securing the cap.
Note: Do not overtighten the cap.
• Wipe the cuvette thoroughly with
a lint-free tissue (HI 93703-70)
before inserting the cuvette into
the measurement cell. The cuvette
must be completely free of finger
marks, oil or dirt, especially in the
area where the light passes
through, i.e. approximately the
bottom 2 cm (3/4” inch) of the
cuvette.
• Place the cuvette into the holder
and check that the notch on the
cap is positioned securely into the
groove.
