Safety Information
For best results, users of the
LUNA™ Automated Cell Counter must follow the instructions below in
addition to the general precautions for using electrical instruments.
1. Users must be careful to avoid electric shock while operating the instrument. Do not touch it and
other components with wet hands. Do not place it in a humid environment such as an incubator.
For operating environment, see page 7.
2. Trypan Blue Stain is a known hazardous material. While handling the solution, always wear
gloves to avoid exposure.
3.
Before use, make sure that the input voltage is compatible with the instrument’s power supply
voltage.
4. For optimal operation, place the instrument on a flat bench and avoid any vibration.
5. Turn on the instrument only after connecting both ends of its power cord to the wall outlet as well
as the instrument. Always turn off the instrument before disconnecting the power cord and/or
moving the instrument.
6. Ensure that the power cord is firmly plugged into the power inlet, the wall outlet and AC adapter.
7. When the instrument is operating for a long time, its temperature can become too high. Please
be careful that the instrument’s temperature does not become too high during long and
continuous operation times. When operating, leave enough space around the instrument so there
is enough room for air circulation and cooling.
8.
Do not disassemble the instrument in any event. If the instrument is malfunctioning or broken,
please contact your local distributor or Logos Biosystems.
Disassembling the instrument
invalidates its warranty.
9. Use only authorized components (adaptor, power cord, and USB drive).
10. If the instrument emits smoke, disconnect the power cord immediately from the wall outlet and
contact a service person.
11.
Do not reuse LUNA™ Cell Counting Slides. Used counting slides must be disposed as biohazard
waste according to the rules and regulations of your local government.
