General Precautions:
The pipetting channels are the heart of the Microlab
STAR. The instrument will not
function properly if these are damaged or are incorrectly adjusted. Therefore you
should exercise great care whenever you have to touch the channels - when
unpacking or repacking the instrument, dismantling or re-assembling the pipetting
arm, replacing channels, etc.
The instrument is provided with a front window. This window is equipped with a
sensor that stops any movement immediately and aborts the run when the window
is opened.
