It is normally used to determine the material moisture contents in wood or building materials and air humidity. The measurement procedure used is suitable for overview measurement to determine whenther the material is continuing to dry out. The material moisture is given in % by weight.

• Auto off function: OFF, ON (instrument switches off automatically if no key is pressed for 10 minutes) 1 When switching the instrument on, press and hold until and appear on the display (configuration mode). - The adjustable function is displayed. The current setting flashes.Using the product 15 2 Press ( ) several times until the desired setting flashes. 3 Press ( ) to confirm the input. 4 Repeat steps 2 and 3 for all functions. - The instrument changes to measuring mode. Using the product To guarantee correct readings:

• Repeat the measurement at several points. The differing resistance of the wood, with or across the grain, may have an impact on the measurement result. If the injection needles are inserted with the grain, this may result in slightly higher readings because the resistance in the material is lower.

• A measurement is only implemented as far as the depth that the injection needles are inserted within the material. Insert the measuring needles as far as possible (4 to 5 mm).

• When measuring fuel moisture content, it is advisable to split the log prior to measurement and to measure at three points. Measuring points: each 5 cm away from the left and right cut edge and once in the centre of the log.

• Keep temperature and humidity sources which may falsify the measurement (e.g. hands) away from the sensor. The values displayed are highly dependent on the building material/manufacturer used, and on the ambient conditions . As the materials are natural, the same materials can vary from batch to batch. Switching the instrument on: > Press

- Measuring mode is opened. Switching the display light on: The instrument is switched on. > Press

- The display light goes out automatically if no key is pressed for 10 seconds. Setting the material characteristic curve: The material moisture is indicated in the top line of the display. The material symbol (wood) or (building deenfresitptsvnl????Using the product16 material) is displayed with the relevant material number (see enclosed sticker for the inside of the protective cap).

> Press several times until the desired material characteristic curve appears. Testing the instrument function: 1 Press several times until Test: lights up. 2 Connect sensing electrodes with the contacts of the test resistor on the top of the protection cap. - Test flashes.

Test: ok lights up: instrument is functioning. Test: ok does not light up: test not possible, see chapter ‚Tips and assistance‘. 3 Press back to measurement menu. Changing the display view: Adjustable views

• Hold: Readings are held. Max/Min-display for air humidity and temperature only.

• Max: Maximum values since the instrument was last switched on or last reset.

• Min: Minimum values since the instrument was last switched on or last reset. > Press several times until the desired view appears. Resetting Max/Min values: 1 Press several times until the desired view appears. 2 Press and hold until - - - - appears. 3 Repeat steps 1 and 2 for all values that are to be reset. Switching the instrument off: > Press and hold until the display goes out.Maintaining the product 17 Maintaining the product Changing batteries: 1 To open the battery compartment, push the battery cover down. 2 Remove used batteries and insert new batteries (2x 1.5 V type AAA). Observe the polarity! 3 To close the battery compartment, push the battery cover back on. Cleaning the housing: > Clean the housing with a moist cloth (soap suds) if it is dirty. Do not use aggressive cleaning agents or solvents! Questions and answers Question Possible causes/solutions Hi or Lo · Readings outside the measuring range (too high, too low): Readings outside the measuring range (too high, too low): for materials that have not been specially dried or moistened, the measurement results should always be within the measuring range.

Residual capacity <10 min: Change batteries. Testing the instrument function: Test: ok does not light up · Clean sensing electrodes and contacts on the top of the protection cap.

• If the error message appears again, send the instrument to Testo Customer Service. Meas. electrodes defective/ worn · Send instrument to Testo customer service. The material‘s measured moisture content is relative to the dry weight (0% moisture) of the relevant material. The stored material characteristic curves were determined using the Darr (wet and dry weighing) method. The specified measuring ranges are derived from this. Conversion to percent by weight Percent by weight = (wet weight-dry weight) × 100 / dry weight Example Wet weight: 180 g Dry weight: 150 g Percent by weight: (180 - 150) × 100 / 150 = 20% deenfresitptsvnl????Tips and assistance
