Storing Cartridges

When you store a cartridge:
• Do not take a cartridge out of its protective wrapping until you are ready to use it.
Use the tear string, not a sharp instrument, to remove the wrapping.
• Store cartridges in a clean environment that duplicates the conditions of the room in
which they are used.
• Before you use a cartridge, make sure that it has been in its operating environment at
least 24 hours.
