As long as the system is hot, do not touch either the up-
per chamber or another hot part without wearing suit-
able protective gloves.
Parking position top or
Measuring position bottom
From the parking position to the measuring position:
Swivel both halves outwards as far as possible and then
lower them down.
Fold together the TC1 and lower it down onto the measuring

Lift the TC1 approx. 2 cm in one movement without letting go
TC1, swivel it out as far as possible,
lift it up as far as it will go and
fold together until both halves lie on the engaging pins.
The measuring unit and the temperature stabilisation unit re-
quire cooling, depending on the utilisation level and the tem-
