• Clean probes before the test. Any remaining coupling gel will disturb
measurements.
• Do not allow the probe head to hang free. Impact to the probe head could result in
irreparable damage.
• For Volume probes (e.g., RAB, RIC,....), which are filled with oil, it is recommended
to position the head horizontally in such a way that any air bubbles are moved
away from the array. Wait some seconds until air bubbles are surely moved aside.
