2.3 Placing the Micro-Sample Test Kit on the
instrument
The Micro-Sample Test Kit contains a supply of
consumables required for testing: 500 chamber cleaners,
500 sampler tips, and one plunger wire.
A Micro-Sample Test Kit must be in place on the top left
of the instrument before testing can begin. As shown in
Figure 7, the box must be oriented so that:
• The photo of the instrument and the box label are
toward the back.
• The dispensing flaps for the chamber cleaners and
sampling tips are toward the front.
If a Micro-Sample Test Kit is not in place on the
instrument when you attempt to run a test, you will
receive the error, “AI consumable box not detected.”
