My instruction booklet go wet and the instruction pages got ruined! I only need the actual instruction, the color chart is fine.
We do not post the manual for any of the aquarium test kits due to the fact that monitors and printers are extremely unreliable at registering the correct colours for the tests. Following are the actual manual instructions as found in the section:
How does the Test work?
1) Take a sample of the water to be tested with the pipette. Use it to fill a clean test tube to the 5 mL line.
2) Add 5 drops of Reagent #1 and 5 drops of Reagent #2 to the test tube. Insert Cap. Hold in place with finger and shake well to mix. Attention!Always use cap.Avoid skin contact.
3) Shake the Reagent #3 bottle vigorously (5 seconds) and add 3 drops to the test tube. Insert cap. Hold in place with finger and shake well to mix.
4) Wait 5 minutes for colour to develop, shake again, and match the test colour on the chart. (No colour development means 0 mg/L). For best results, hold the test tube flat against the paper and read with a light source behind you.
5) After use, rinse the tube with fresh tap water to ensure it is clean for next use.
