The Clean operation is normally performed automatically at the completion of the
previous sequencing run. Manually run the Clean operation under any of the
following conditions:
• The sequencing run was aborted or there was a power failure during the second
of two runs started after a single initialization.
• The sequencing run was not completed, and >200 flows occurred before the
stoppage.
• The post-sequencing Clean operation was not completed.

S5
™
Wash Solution cartridge. Perform an instrument reset run instead. See “Perform
an instrument reset run with an initialized, unused Ion S5
™
Wash Solution
cartridge“ on page 16 for more information.
