temperature ranges during operation and in storage.
• Use the device's sheath to protect it when it is not in use.
• Do not bend or pull the capillary connection tubing where it couples
to the ionKey source.
• Avoid excess voltage, which can erode the emitter over time.
• Decompress the device before you remove it from the source.
• Do not touch the electrospray emitter. Doing so can cause it to bend.
