Caution
Prime the liquid system with the liquid to be used (wash
buffer). Ensure that the dispensing pump is not run for longer than a
few minutes without liquid, otherwise it may be damaged. Check for
possible air leaks.

Note
If the instrument has not been used for a longer time, you might
need to perform the Boost prime option. Refer to “Service” on page
102.
▲
Note
In case of two-buffer protocols, both the buffer channels have to
be primed before the protocol is started. If channels are switched within
the same protocol, add a Prime step to the protocol to ensure that liquid
in the tubing is replaced completely (a volume of at least 15 ml is
required).
