Maintenance and Servicing
Although the Lu-mini unit does not require any scheduled servicing, the
operator should regularly clean and inspect the unit for defects, as described
in Section 9.1 below.
DANGER
WARNING
CAUTION
Please observe and comply with all of the
Unit Maintenance
and Serviceability
safety precautions listed in Section 2.
Always unplug the unit before performing any cleaning or
disinfecting tasks.
Never remove the unit casework. There are no user or
operator serviceable parts inside the unit.
Never use alcohol-based cleaners on the black surfaces
inside the lid as it will remove the coating and significantly
degrade
the unit’s performance.
Practise anti-static precautions by avoiding directly touching
the exposed electrical contacts or using statically charged
cleaning cloths.
For technical and service related enquiries, please contact your distributor or
Vitl at the address given on page 2 of this manual.
9.1
Routine Cleaning and Inspection
The unit casework should be cleaned and inspected at regular intervals, and
whenever contamination or spillage occurs, as follows:
1. Disconnect the USB power cord from the unit before performing any
inspection checks or cleaning.
2. Wearing suitable PPE, clean the casework using a damp cloth or
cotton bud soaked with a suitable disinfectant solution (such as
Virkon). Do not over wet.
3. Clean around the LCD fascia and touchscreen, taking care to avoid
over wetting or pushing debris into the bezel gap.
4. Clean inside the lid, taking particular care not to rub away the black
coating.
5. If necessary, carefully clean the sample chamber using a damp long-
stick cotton bud only. Do not push anything else into the cavity as it
may get caught on the tube alignment string and damage the unit.
