3. Installation et utilisation initiale

The RCYAGO Soil pH and Moisture Meter requires no assembly or batteries. It is ready for use directly out of the packaging.

3.1 Première utilisation

1. Gently clean the metal probe with a soft cloth before first use.
2. Ensure the soil is moist. If the soil is dry, water it thoroughly and wait 20-30 minutes before testing.

4. Mode d'emploi

4.1 Measuring Soil pH

1. Insert the metal probe into the soil clockwise, ensuring it reaches a depth of at least 10cm (approximately 4 inches) for accurate readings. The probe should be in full contact with the soil and compacted.
2. Wait for the pointer on the dial to stabilize (typically 5-10 minutes).
3. Read the pH value directly from the dial. The pH scale is usually indicated with a range of 3-8.
4. For multi-point measurement, repeat the process in different areas and average the values for a comprehensive understanding of your soil's pH.

4.2 Measuring Soil Moisture

1. Insert the metal probe into the soil as described for pH measurement.
2. Press and hold the white button located on the side of the meter. The pointer will automatically jump to the humidity reading.
3. Wait for the pointer to stabilize before reading the moisture level.
4. Release the button to return to pH measurement mode.

4.3 Visual Guide: Product Usage

5. Entretien

• Nettoyer après utilisation : Always clean the electrode head thoroughly after each use to remove any soil particles.
• Garder au sec : Ensure the probe is completely dry before storing the meter.
• Stockage: Store the meter in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Évitez les liquides : This product is designed exclusively for soil testing. Do not use it for testing any liquids.

6. Dépannage

• Lectures inexactes : Ensure the soil is adequately moist. Dry soil can lead to inaccurate or no readings. Water the soil and wait 20-30 minutes before retesting.
• Pointer Not Stabilizing: Make sure the probe is fully inserted into the soil (at least 10cm deep) and compacted. Loose contact with soil can affect stability.
• Difficulté à changer de mode : When measuring humidity, press and prise the button until the pointer stabilizes. Releasing the button will revert to pH mode.
• Dommages causés par la sonde : Do not use excessive force when inserting the electrode into hard or rocky soil, as this can damage the probe.
• No Reading in Liquids: This meter is specifically designed for soil. It will not provide accurate readings in water or other liquids.
