When heating make sure that the measuring probe (below
the shaft) is always completely contained within the gas
flame.

5.3
Cleaning the measuring probe for determining the density
!
The measuring probe for determining liquid densities must be absolutely grease-
free, as otherwise air bubbles could adhere to its surface and cause incorrect
measurements.
Degrease the density probe, e.g. with acetone or isopropanol. Then rinse it with
distilled water and let it dry. Avoid touching it with your fingers.
