4-1 Soil measurement
1)Turn on the meter by pressing the " Power Button "
( 3-3, Fig. 1 ) momentarily.
* Press the " Power Button " ( 3-3, Fig. 1 )
momentarily again will turn off the meter.
2)Insert the " Moisture sensing head " ( 3-2, Fig. 1 ) into
the measured soil.
It is recommended that probe head should be
inserted into the soil at least 10 cm when make
the measurement..

4-2 Data Hold
* During the measurement, press the " Hold Button "
( 3-4, Fig. 1 ) momentarily to hold the measured
value. The LCD will show a " HOLD " symbol.
* Press the" Hold Button " once again to release the
data hold function.
4-3 Data Record ( Max., Min. reading )
1)The data record function records the maximum and
minimum readings. Press the " REC Button " ( 3-5, Fig.
1 ) momentarily to start the Data Record function,
shows " REC " on the display.
2)With the " REC " symbol on the display.
a)Press the " REC Button " ( 3-5, Fig. 1 ) momentarily,
the " REC MAX " symbol along with the maximum
value will appear on the display.
b)Press the " REC Button " ( 3-5, Fig. 1 ) momentarily
again, the " REC MIN " symbol along with the
minimum value will appear on the display.
* When display shows " REC MAX " or " REC MIN ",
press the " Hold Button " ( 3-4, Fig. 1 )
momentarily will delete the max. ( min. ) value,
the display will show the " REC. " only and
execute the memory function continuously.
c)To exit the memory record function, press the
" REC " button for 2 seconds at least. The display will
revert to the current reading, not show " REC "
