15 Maintenance and care
The Biometra TAdvanced is mainly maintenance-free.
The care and maintenance tasks which can be performed by the customer are limited to
the cleaning and disinfection of the housing and sample block.
All maintenance work and repairs beyond this scope must only be performed by Bi-
ometra GmbH customer service personnel or authorized and trained persons. Any unau-
thorized intervention limits warranty entitlements. If the device exhibits any faults or
defects, please contact the Biometra GmbH customer service department immediately.
In order to guarantee sound and safe operation and to ensure laboratory certification,
we recommend concluding a maintenance agreement with regular device validation.
