Indexing the vial: This is best performed with a vial that is filled with water that is filtered
through a 0.2 µm filter.

• When position is determined, stop the measurement. Mark the vial.
• Before proceeding with additional measurements, ensure measurement mode is
updated, as necessary.

glassware.
Use of Silicone Oil
• Take care to handle the vial by the top third only.
• Wipe the vial with the supplied cleaning cloth to remove water, dust and fingerprints.
• Oil the outside of the vial with silicone oil.
• Place a very thin bead of silicone oil down the side of the vial. Evenly spread the
bead of oil over the bottom 2/3's of the vial.
• Wipe the silicone from the vial through rotation of the vial against a clean, dust-free
cloth.
