b) Calibration solutions
• Important note on calibration solutions: You can download the safety datasheet for calibration
solutions from our product webpage under www.conrad.com. The following S principles apply: S24/25:
Avoid contact with eyes and skin.
• Prevent the calibration solutions from getting in contact with eyes and skin. In case of contact with
eyes, rinse eyes immediately with plenty of clear water and then consult your doctor. In case of
contact with skin, rinse the affected area with plenty of clear water.
• Do not ingest calibration solutions.

7. NOTES ON (RECHARGEABLE) BATTERIES

• Correct polarity must be observed while inserting the (rechargeable) batteries.
• (Rechargeable) batteries should be removed from the device if it is not used for a long period of time to avoid
damage through leaking. Leaking or damaged (rechargeable) batteries might cause acid burns when in contact
with skin, therefore use suitable protective gloves to handle corrupted (rechargeable) batteries.
• (Rechargeable) batteries must be kept out of reach of children. Do not leave (rechargeable) batteries lying around,
as there is risk, that children or pets swallow them.
• All (rechargeable) batteries should be replaced at the same time. Mixing old and new (rechargeable) batteries in
the device can lead to (rechargeable) battery leakage and device damage.
• (Rechargeable).batteries.must.not.be.dismantled,.short-circuited.or.thrown.into.fire..Never.recharge.non-
rechargeable batteries. There is a risk of explosion!
The liquid meter can be operated via rechargeable batteries. Nevertheless, the lower voltage (battery = 1.5 V,
rechargeable.batteries.=.1.2.V).can.significantly.reduce.the.operating.time.and.display.contrast.
We therefore recommend you not using rechargeable batteries for reason of operational reliability, but to only
install high-quality alkaline batteries in order to ensure long and safe functioning of the device.
