For optimum analytical performance, it is recommended that the ambient temperature of
the laboratory be between 20-25 °C and be held +/- 2 °C throughout the entire working day.
Hot Surface
If you use the instrument at environmental temperatures higher than 50 °C (122 F),
the rear of the instrument may get hot.
Do not store, ship or use your instrument under conditions where temperature
fluctuations could cause condensation within the instrument. Condensation will
damage the electronics. If your instrument was shipped in cold weather, leave it in its
box and allow it to warm up slowly to room temperature to avoid condensation.
