Open the new Cedex HiRes Reagent Kit, and remove the covers from the individual containers.

Place the Reagent Kit containers into the appropriate positions in the Reagent Tray:
Detergent Container
Trypan Blue Container
Cleaning Solution Container
Waste Container
Distilled or Deionized Water Container

8
Click the REPLACE ALL CONTAINERS button in right-hand corner of the Reagent Kit Status dialog box to
confirm the changing of the Reagent Kit. The Reagent Control display at the bottom right-hand corner of the
Cedex Control Center turns from red to green and indicates the number of runs left.
The estimated number of runs depends on the last 25 measurements or fluidic actions performed. If 25
measurements or fluidic actions have not yet been performed, the calculation may not yet reflect the
actual number of runs possible.
