CAUTION
Do not swallow the electrolyte. Avoid contact of the
electrolyte with skin and eyes. Otherwise wash with a lot
of water. In case of eye inflammation, contact a doctor.
IMPORTANT
• Do not touch or damage the membrane or electrodes.
• The electrolyte is sensitive to oxidation: always keep the
electrolyte bottle closed after use. Do not transfer the
electrolyte into other containers.
• The electrolyte should not be stored for more than 1 year
and should not yellow (use by date, see label).
• As far as possible avoid forming air bubbles when pouring
the electrolyte into the membrane cap.
• The membrane cap must be used once only.
NOTE
• Store the electrolyte bottle upside down in order that the
viscous electrolyte can be poured easily and bubble free
into the membrane cap.
• Smaller bubbles will not interfere, larger bubbles leave
the electrolyte by rising to the surface.
Open the electrolyte bottle and
unscrew the nozzle.
Squeeze out excess air.
Fill the membrane cap with
electrolyte, avoiding air bubbles
as far as possible:
Place the electrolyte bottle
completely onto the membrane cap
(see figure 3). Slowly squeeze the
electrolyte out of the bottle in one
steady stream, while continuously
retracting the bottle.
The cap is completely full when
the electrolyte reaches the lower
edge of the thread.
