The following procedures can be employed to withdraw a specimen from the specimen chamber:
(1) On the EVAC panel located on the front side of the main unit, press the AIR button.
Alternatively, click the AIR button located in the upper right section of the Control Panel.
This introduces air into the specimen chamber. Wait approximately 100 seconds until the
specimen chamber is completely at the atmospheric pressure.
