Caution!
If a sample is left in a stable condition for more than 4
hours and its blood cell and plasma are separated,
correct analysis results may not be obtained due to
insufficient mixing. Therefore, in case of analyzing
such samples, make sure to mix the samples
thoroughly before setting them on the sampler.
Caution!
• Do not touch or remove the cover of the CP Unit
during the sampler is in operation.
You could be injured by the mechanical parts.
(If the cover is opened, analysis will be interrupted
by the monitoring switch.)
• Do not manually push (or move) the sample rack
forward during sampler analysis.
There is a small possibility that sample numbers and
analysis results could become misaligned.
• Do not touch the rack on the analysis line during
sampler analysis.
• Make sure there is no dirt or foreign substance on
the bottom of the rack. Also make sure there is no
breakage or deformation of the rack.
