   - Plug in the power line of the compressor.
   - You are now pumping. It is best to monitor the refill. (It will take about 30 minutes) Pay attention to:
-    - The pressure (read-out on He-Vessel indicator) should not exceed 0.5 Bar. YOu can regulate this by clamping the compressor bypass.

     - The fill rate (read-out on computer) should be around 1-1.5%/min.
+    - The Vessel Valve should be heated while filling with the heating gun(at half-heating power), to prevent the valve from freezing.
   - There are no instructions yet to stop the filling and disconnect the He-Vessel. Ask for help.
