place the pen in its slot and to take it out of the slot.
• Never store the pen with the tip bearing the weight of the pen (e.g. with the tip dow n
in a pen holder). If the pen is stored with the tip pointing down, this may have
an adverse effect on the pen mechanism (particularly under high temperatures).
In th is case the pen tip ma y react as though it is constantly being pressed down.
To avoid damage, the pen should be stored in the pen slot when not in use.
