Usage Features

The Miele A 200 is designed for ease of use and efficient reprocessing of laboratory items.

Loading Pipettes: Pipettes should be inserted into the funnels with the pointed end facing downwards. The top ends of the pipettes should be fitted into the corresponding holders on the support rail. It is important to ensure that pipettes do not extend beyond the side edge of the unit.
Ensuring Proper Water Flow: Before placing pipettes in the injector unit, it is crucial to ensure that all hollow sections are free of blockages to allow for proper water flow during the cleaning cycle.
Program Selection: For optimal cleaning, the "Pipettes" program should be used with the washer-disinfector.
Ejection of Pipettes: The spray pressure from the washer-disinfector can eject pipettes from their funnels if placed in rows 1 and 2. This indicates effective cleaning action.
Safety Instructions: Users must carefully read and adhere to the operating instructions for the mobile injector unit and the washer-disinfector. Components such as injectors should only be replaced with original Miele accessories or parts. Any other application, modification, or change is unauthorized and potentially dangerous. Miele is not liable for damage caused by unauthorized use or incorrect operation.
Daily Checks: Daily checks of all mobile units, baskets, modules, and inserts should be performed according to the "Maintenance" section in the washer-disinfector's operating instructions.
Glass Breakage Prevention: Broken glass can cause serious injury during loading or unloading. Items with broken glass should not be processed in the washer-disinfector.
Visual Inspection: The reprocessing result must be checked as necessary using a suitable test method and not just by a visual check.
