Preparation for use
Prepare the probe before a calibration or a sample measurement.
1. Turn the probe soaker bottle cap counter-clockwise to loosen the cap.
2. Remove the soaker bottle from the probe.
3. Fully rinse the reference junction and the glass bulb with deionized water to remove
all of the storage solution or possible salt particles. Dry with a no-lint cloth.
