• Insert the second cuvette into the instrument.
• Press READ to start the reading. The instrument displays
the results in mg/L of silver.
Note: a temperature above 30°C may cause turbidity. In this case, before zeroing and taking readings,
add 2-3 drops of Dispersing agent (HI 93703-51) to each cuvette and swirl until turbidity is completely
dissolved.
