Default Proper Way to Insert Multi-Probe

When I got my Stemme, I asked my instructor if there was a proper

it in until I hear/feel a metallic click.Â* That's worked just fine for
the past two years but I wonder if I should lubricate the thing, say
with Vaseline or something.Â* I shudder to think of replacing internal
o-rings.

Pinch your nose to get some skin oils on your fingers, and wipe the probe. Just enough lubrication, and readily available! Works like a charm.
