Before you depend on it for anything important, get a few packs each of new calibration fluid and calibrate it. You'll need to calibrate periodically anyway, and will need calibration fluid to do so.

Let it soak in the ph7 solution for a few hours, or preferably overnight and then attempt to calibrate again.

You can purchase the solutions from many places and you will need to recalibrate periodically anyway.

What you are seeing can occur if the probe was not kept wet during shipping.
