The effect of thermal treatment on the electrical conductivity was studied for a quasi-one-dimensional organic conductor, (DIMET)2I3 (DIMET=dimethyl(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene). After heating the samples up to a temperature between 340 and 370 K, the electric resistivity was measured at low temperature down to 2 K and under pressure up to 1.6 Gpa. (DIMET)2I3 shows irreversible decrease in the electric resistivity between 350 and 356 K on heating. It was found that the heating above 350 K suppresses the spin-density-wave transition at 40 K and another metal-insulator transition appears at 18 K.
