If condensation occurs...
Condensation occurs in the form of water droplets on the device surfaces and interior when the GL220 is
moved from a cold to a warm location. Using the GL220 with condensation will cause malfunctioning.
Wait until the condensation has disappeared before turning on the power.
Warming-up Before Use
The GL220 should be allowed to warm up with the power turned on for approximately 30 minutes to ensure
that it operates according to the specified performance.
Configuration When in Use
It is recommended to use the GL220 while it is laid flat or inclined on the stands.
Usage Configuration
To prevent possible malfunction, do not block the air vents of the GL220.
If you use the GL220 in other position than described in the above, the measurement accuracy may not
meet the specifications.
To prevent possible toppling, use both of the stands of the GL220 when you place it inclined.
Use the GL220 with both of the two stands open as shown in the figure above.
