9. Calibration Mode
To maintain high accuracy, it is recommended to calibrate the instrument
once a year. This section describes the calibration procedure using
the standard devices recommended in "Standard Device Selection."

(2) Required Environment and Conditions for Calibration
Ambient temperature: 23 ±1°C
Relative humidity: 45% to 75%
Warm-up time:
The standard devices must be warmed up for the specied times and
the instrument must be warmed up for at least 2 hours (for calibration).
