ONGOING MAINTENANCE
A. Electrode Storage
1. Electrodes attached to the instrument should be kept in a moist environment. Keep the
sponge in the chamber moist, tap water is acceptable. The single-junction electrode
needs to be kept clean; check periodically for cleanliness.
2. For long-term storage, store in pH 4 buffer.
B. Battery Disposal
This instrument is powered by alkaline batteries, which the user must remove and dispose of
when the batteries no longer power the instrument. Disposal requirements vary by country and
region, and users are expected to understand and follow the battery disposal requirements for
their specific locale.
The circuit board in this instrument may contain a manganese dioxide lithium "coin cell" battery
that must be in place for continuity of power to memory devices on the board. This battery is not
user serviceable or replaceable. When appropriate, an authorized YSI service center will
remove this battery and properly dispose of it, per service and repair policies.
