2.2 Setting the Volume
Open the volume adjustment catch by
pulling up the volume control button
1
(Fig. 1), until you hear a click. Turn the
volume control button
1
clockwise to
reduce the aspirated volume, or counter
clockwise to increase it. The set volume is
shown in the four-step volume display
4
from top to bottom, with a white line indi-
cating the decimal point. When increasing
the volume setting, pass the required
value by 1/3 of a turn and then slowly de-
crease to reach the volume, making sure
not to go beyond the required volume.
After you have finished setting the volume,
push the volume control button
1
back to
its lock position until you hear a click. The
pipette is now ready to use.
