Precautions
The following precautions are provided to help avoid damage to the instrument(s):
Caution: Service. The instrument should be serviced by BioTek-authorized
service personnel. Only qualified technical personnel should perform troubleshooting
and service procedures on internal components.
Caution: Spare Parts. Only approved spare parts should be used for
maintenance. The use of unapproved spare parts and accessories may result in a
loss of warranty and potentially impair instrument performance or cause damage to
the instrument.
Caution: Environmental Conditions. Do not expose the instrument to
temperature extremes. For proper operation, temperaturess near the instrument
should remain within the range listed in the Specifications section. Performance
may be adversely affected if temperatures fluctuate above or below this range.
Caution: Sodium Hypochlorite. Do not expose any part of the instrument to
the recommended diluted sodium hypochlorite solution (bleach) for more than 20
minutes. Prolonged contact may damage the instrument surfaces. Be certain to
rinse and thoroughly wipe all surfaces.
Caution: Power Supply. Only use the power supply shipped with the
instrument. Operate this power supply within the range of line voltages listed on it.
Caution: Disposal. Dispose of the instrument according to Directive
2002/96/EC, “on waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE),” or local
ordinances.
Caution: Warranty. Failure to follow preventive maintenance protocols may
void the warranty.
Caution: Shipping Hardware. All shipping hardware (e.g., shipping panel,
shipping block, carrier shipping screws, etc.) must be removed before operating the
instrument and reinstalled before repackaging the instrument for shipment.
Caution: Waste Sensor Port (for customers who have purchased the
BioStack for use with the ELx405, 405 TS/LS, or EL406). The waste sensor port on
the back of the washer/dispenser is the same type as the 24-VDC power connector
on the back of the BioStack. Do not plug the BioStack’s external power supply into
