Again take the probe and determine the level of transmission liquid by the size of the moistened site of an edge of the probe, - level has to be between top (F) and lower (L) marks and not fall below a tag of L at all. In case of need make the corresponding adjustment (see the Section Check of Levels of Liquids).
