SECTION 2

SETUP AND PREPARATION FOR OPERATION

2.2 Preparing the Stainer for Operation

The Clean Cycle

NOTE:

The Clean cycle uses 20 mL of alcohol divided equally among nozzles C and E to

clean the carousel and stainer bowl after staining. Water is sprayed from the D and B
nozzles and Reagent A is sprayed from the A nozzle. Pressing Standby/Ready performs
the same function.

1

Place an empty carousel in the instrument and close the lid.

CAUTION:

Never place any carousel loaded with specimens in the instrument for a Clean
cycle (including placing the instrument in standby mode). Specimens will be
damaged if they contact reagents sprayed from the nozzles when you press
Clean or Standby.

2

Press

Clean

.

NOTE:

Pressing Stop during the Clean cycle causes the Incomplete Clean

message to be displayed. Press Clean to complete the interrupted cycle.

3

Open the lid and remove the carousel when the Clean cycle is complete.

4

Spray the interior of the bowl with 70 to 100% methanol or ethanol. Wipe
the stainer bowl dry with paper towels.

NOTE:

Perform the Storing the Instrument procedure (Section 5.2), if the

instrument will remain idle for more than 1 week.

NOTE:

At the end of a Clean cycle, cleaning reagents (alcohol or water) remain

in the nozzles. These are primed out of the nozzles during the first steps of a
stain cycle.

Performing Tests

You must perform the Pattern Test and Volume Test before using the instrument. See
Section 6, Nozzle Maintenance and Performance.
