Insert the end of the sample inlet tubing into the sample container.
Tip:
If the tubing is filled with buffer, introduce a small air bubble into the sample
tubing between the buffer and the sample. This will mark the progress of the
sample front along the flow path tubing.

Set a suitable pump flow rate, for example 100 mL/min. Follow the sample
front in the tubing. (The sample front may be difficult to follow if the flow
rate is too high.)
3
When the sample front has passed through the inlet valve, click Pause .

Switch the inlet valve to buffer inlet.5
Click Continue , change the flow rate to maximum (600 mL/min), and
wait until all air bubbles have been removed through the Waste 2 outlet on
the column valve.
