Hazardous chemical warning
• Chemicals used with the instrument may be hazardous.
• Always wear protective gear including safety goggles, gloves, and a lab coat when handling chemicals.
• Exercise caution when handling flammable liquids.
• Take precautions, including but not limited to installing proper ventilation systems, to ensure that the BioXp™
system laboratory is safe and that operators of the instrument will not be exposed to hazardous levels of
harmful chemicals.
• Follow all national, state, and local health and safety regulations and laws.
• Use proper waste disposal in accordance with all relevant regulations.
• Refer to applicable material safety data sheets (MSDSs).
Flammable liquids: Instrument warning
• Exercise caution when using flammable liquids in the BioXp™ system to minimize the risk of fire.
• Do not use any flammable liquids in the instrument except for the liquids required in the included procedure.
• Provide adequate ventilation for the instrument to prevent the accumulation of flammable vapors.
• All sources of ignition, such as open flame or electrical spark, are not permitted near the instrument or in
areas where flammable vapors may travel.
• Ensure that the instrument, all neighboring equipment, and users of the instrument are appropriately
grounded to minimize the generation of static electricity.
• Do not use the ethanol reservoir if it is cracked.
Flammable liquids: Solution handling warning
• Keep flammable liquids in covered containers when not in use.
• Provide means to promptly and safely dispose of any flammable liquid leaks or spills.
• Do not transfer liquids using air pressure.
• Read applicable MSDSs.
• Store flammable liquids in cool, well-ventilated areas away from corrosives, oxidizers, and ignition sources.
• Label containers and cabinets as “flammable materials” where applicable.
• Use only approved safety vessels for flammable liquid storage.
• Ground and bond flammable liquid containers to prevent static charge buildup.
• Never pour flammable liquids down a drain or sink.
• Dispose of empty flammable containers in an approved manner.
Electrical safety warning
• Do not attach the power cord to an extension cord or to a multiple portable socket. Doing so may
compromise shielding and/or grounding.
• This equipment should not be used adjacent to or stacked with other equipment. If it becomes necessary
to use the BioXp™ system under these conditions, the unit should be observed to verify normal operation in
this condition.
• Use only grounded mains outlets to supply instrument.
• Do not remove any panels. Panels should be removed only by trained service personnel.
• The AC power cord is the primary disconnection device for the instrument. Ensure that the point of
connection is easily accessible and free of any obstructions.
Important warning: Moving parts
• Do not override the door lock. When the door is locked, the moving parts of the instrument are operational.
Never attempt to physically restrict movement of instrument components.
• Interfering with moving parts may cause personal injury. Keep hands clear of moving parts while operating
the instrument.
• Do not move or shift the instrument during operation.
• If the instrument shows evidence of corrosion or wear, do not attempt to manipulate or tamper with
components of the instrument.
Important warning: Disconnecting the instrument
• Disconnect power to the system before cleaning or performing maintenance.
• DO NOT remove any panels; they should be removed only by qualified service personnel.
• Do not disassemble unit.
