7.2.2 Periodic cleaning and maintenance
Cleaning the reagent bottles
•
Empty and clean the reagent bottles using a bottle brush and a
laboratory detergent in warm water.
Never clean reagent bottles in an automatic dishwasher.
The reagent bottles are NOT dishwasher-proof!
•
Refill and reconnect the bottles once cleaned.
Make sure the bottle lids are tight and the bottles are properly seated in
their home position at the rear of the reagent cabinet.
The reagent bottles must be properly engaged in the home po-
sition in the connection manifolds at the rear inner wall of the
reagent module. Failure to correctly plug reagent bottles into
the manifold will cause an interruption to the processing run
and may result in spilling of reagents.
•
While the reagent bottles are outside of the reagent cabinet, wipe the
stainless steel inner walls of the reagent cabinet with a damp cloth
moistened with a mild detergent.
For further periodic cleaning and maintenance steps, refer to the mainte-
nance schedule on the following pages.
