Cleaning Exposed Surfaces
Important! Turn off and unplug the instrument for all
cleaning operations.
Important! Do not immerse the instrument, spray it with
liquid, or use a “wet” cloth. Do not allow the cleaning
solution to run into the interior of the instrument. If this
happens, contact BioTek’s Service Department.
Exposed surfaces may be cleaned (not decontaminated) with a cloth moistened
(not soaked) with water or water and a mild detergent. You will need:
• Deionized or distilled water
• Clean, lint-free cotton cloths
• Mild detergent (optional)
To clean the exposed surfaces:
1. Turn off and unplug the instrument.
2. Moisten a clean cotton cloth with water, or with water and mild detergent.
Do not soak the cloth.
3. Wipe the plate carrier and all exposed surfaces of the instrument.
4. Wipe all exposed surfaces of the dispense module (if used).
5. If detergent was used, wipe all surfaces with a cloth moistened with water.
6. Use a clean, dry cloth to dry all wet surfaces.
7. Reassemble the instrument as necessary.
Models with injectors: If the Tip Priming Trough overflows, wipe the
carrier and the surface beneath the carrier with a dry cotton cloth. If
overflow is significant, you may have to remove the shroud of the
instrument to better access the surface beneath the carrier.
See page 62 for instructions on removing the shroud.
See page 76 for instructions for cleaning the surface beneath the
carrier.
