Priming the Fluidics
Prime the fluidics only to remove bubbles from the flow cell.
1 Remove the tube of distilled water from the SIP.
2 Press PRIME.
The flow cell drains and fills with sheath fluid. When finished, the
STNDBY button turns orange.
3 Replace the distilled water tube on the SIP.
Emptying the Waste Reservoir
To prevent the waste reservoir from overflowing, empty it when you fill the
sheath reservoir.
All biological specimens and materials coming into contact with them can
transmit potentially fatal disease. To prevent exposure to biohazardous
agents, expose waste container contents to bleach (10% of total volume)
before disposal. Dispose of waste in accordance with local regulations. Use
proper precaution and wear suitable protective clothing, eyewear, and gloves.
