11.1.5 Critical Error Messages
If critical instrument error messages, keep arising during initialization or at any other step
with the instrument, the code sequence for each entry should be recorded and sent to
your local representative for further inspection. If possible, it’s recommended to also
retrieve the logs for the instrument using the procedure that is described in section
6.1.2 and forward those with the error report.
12 Cleaning the Instrument
The cleaning of the instrument should be performed regularly using proprietary
decontaminants followed by water and appropriate detergent. Only the deck and outside
of the instrument should be cleaned, together with running the appropriate cleaning
cycles to keep the tubing clean. No attempt should be made to remove instrument panels
in order to clean the inside of the instrument, as there is a risk of injury and risk of damage
to the instrument.
Protective gloves should
always
be worn when cleaning the instrument.
Appropriate detergents should be used to clean the surrounding surfaces.
A cloth, dampened in detergent should be used to wipe all areas in and around the base
and the reagent area. Use the same technique to wash all parts that may come in contact
with any accidental spillage.
