Prologue
Ensure that the Trypan Blue solution is free of contamination, otherwise fi lter prior to use. Roche Diagnostics
GmbH recommends the use of the Cedex HiRes Reagent Kit.
Secure your measurement data.
If the system has been upgraded from some previous version to Software version 2.2, it is possible that some
default settings in the System Options may have slightly different values than those described in this manual.
The settings described in this manual apply to systems on which Software version 2.2 has been installed as
the original software.
The software and hardware of your Cedex HiRes System can differ from the information described here, but
this should not make a difference to the operational functions in general.
The manufacturer is not responsible or liable for any damages resulting from improper use or failure to
comply with the regulations in the Operating Instructions.
Electrical Safety
The Cedex HiRes Analyzer is designed in accordance with Protection Class I
(IEC). The chassis/
housing of the instrument is grounded to protection earth
(PE) by means of a cord. For protection
against electrical shock hazards, the instrument must be directly connected to an approved
power source
such as a three-wire grounded receptacle for the 110 V or 230 V line. Do not use
an ungrounded receptacle; have a qualifi ed electrician replace the ungrounded receptacle with
a properly (PE) grounded receptacle in accordance with the local electrical code. Do not use an
extension. Any break in the electrical ground path, whether inside or outside the instrument,
could be hazardous.
Under no circumstances should the user attempt to modify or deliberately
defeat the safety
features of this instrument. If the power cord becomes
cracked, frayed, broken, or otherwise
damaged, replace it immediately with the equivalent part from Roche Diagnostics.
XIV. Disposal of the Analyzer
Disposal Recommendations
All electrical and electronic products should be disposed of separately from the municipal waste system. Proper
disposal of your old appliance prevents potential negative consequences for the environment and human health.
The analyzer must be treated as biologically contaminated hazardous
waste.
Decontamination (i.e.,
a combination of processes, including cleaning, disinfection
and/or sterilization) is required before
reuse, recycling or disposal.
Dispose of the analyzeraccording to local and/or laboratory regulations.
For more information contact your local Roche Support personnel.
Components of your control unit such as the computer, monitor, keyboard, etc. which are marked
with the crossed-out wheeled bin symbol are covered by the European Directive 2002/96/EC on
waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) of the European Parliament and the Council of
January 27, 2003.
These items must be disposed of via designated collection facilities appointed by government or
local authorities.
For more information about disposal of your old product, please contact your city offi ce, waste
disposal service or local Roche Support personnel.
Disposal Recommendations
It is left to the responsible laboratory organization to determine whether control unit components are
contaminated or not. If contaminated, treat in the same way as the analyzer.
