• Remove stoppers from sample tubes before loading.
• Load the sample tubes onto the racks with the bar code labels facing the same
direction as the sample rack bar code label. (Refer to Figure 2.25.)
• Confirm that the tube is properly seated in the bottom of the rack.
• Be sure the entire bar code symbol, including quiet zone, is visible through the rack.
