MEASURING

1. Insert the filled cuvette in the cuvette holder.

2. Press down gently until you feel a “click” and hold in position until the result appears on the screen.

Pull the cuvette out of the Consult

Hemoglobin quickly.

3. Dispose of the used cuvette in a container for potentially infectious waste. Record the test result

as soon as the checkmark is shown.

4. The result will remain on the display until replaced by the next measurement. To erase the latest

result, press down on the empty cuvette holder.

Use only completely filled cuvettes for measuring. A filled cuvette should be analyzed within 1 minute after

filling. A filled cuvette should be kept in a horizontal position until measurement.

If the Consult

Hemoglobin analyzer has been out of use for a couple of hours, an error code may appear

after the first measurement. Remove the filled cuvette, make a “blank” measurement by pressing down the

empty cuvette holder and then reinsert the filled cuvette for measurement.
