4.1 ELECTRONIC LOCKING 

During normal operation drawers are electronically unlocked through the MedLink software:

1.  When the drawer is unlocked it will open slightly. Pull the drawer forwards to access the contents. Tabs at the rear of 

the drawer prevent the drawer from sliding all the way out accidentally. 

 
 
 
 
 

2.  The drawer can be fully removed by tilting the drawer backwards in exactly the same way as when inserting the drawer, 

and continuing to pull the drawer forwards.
