This centrifuge has been subject to thorough testing and quality
control. In the unlikely event of a manufacturing fault, our one
year warranty (from the date of delivery) covers the centrifuge

incorrect operation, use of nonstandard spare parts or accesso-
ries and unauthorized modification of the rotor or centrifuge.

2. Installation
2.1 Unpacking the centrifuge
Before unpacking the centrifuge, inspect the outside of the carton

5.3 Cleaning the rotor
The rotor should be cleaned after each use. When spinning
samples containing phenol or phenol chloroform, the rotor should
be cleaned immediately after use.
5.4 Disinfection
Should a spill of infectious materials occur within the rotor or
chamber, the unit should be disinfected. This should be per-
formed by qualified personnel with proper protective equipment.
5.5 Replacing fuses
Check the fuse when it is recommended in the Troubleshooting
Guide located in this manual. The fuse holder is located in the
power inlet on the rear of the unit. Disconnect the power cord
from the power inlet. Open the fuse holder drawer by inserting a
small screwdriver under the tab and prying it open. Remove the
innermost (operative) fuse from its retaining tabs and replace the
fuse if necessary. A spare fuse is located in the outermost
chamber of the fuse drawer. Replace only with a fuse of exactly
the same value as the original. (Fuse type may be found in the
Technical data section of this manual.)
