WARNING
Physical harm caused by ignoring operative basics.
Never use the centrifuge if parts of its casing is damaged or missing.
Never start the centrifuge when the centrifuge door is open.
Do not move the centrifuge while it is running.
Do not lean on the centrifuge.
Do not place anything on top of the centrifuge during a run.
Implement measures which ensure that no one can approach the centrifuge for
longer than absolutely necessary while it is running.
WARNING
The magnets built into the rotors can have a negative effect on active implants, such
as cardiac pacemakers.
The magnets are mounted on the bottom of the rotor.
Always keep a distance of 20 cm between the rotor and the active implant, as the
product generates permanent magnetic fields. The magnetic field strength at a
distance of 20 cm is less than 0.1 mT, so there should be no interference.
CAUTION
Due to air friction the temperature of rotor may rise significantly while the centrifuge
is spinning.
Refrigerated units have limitations in cooling capabilities.
Displayed and set temperature can deviate from sample temperature. Sample
temperature might exceed critical temperature of your application.
NOTICE
To shut down the centrifuge:
Press the STOP key to shut down the centrifuge.
Turn off the centrifuge at the power supply switch. The power supply plug must be
freely accessible at all times.
Pull out the power supply plug or disconnect the power supply in an emergency.
NOTICE
In case of serious incident:
Report any case of serious incident that has occured in relation to the device to the
manufacturer and your local authorities
