● When the pull-up speed is increased, more solution will be brought into the next station and
accelerate solution deterioration, resulting in lower staining quality. There are also risks of
tissue contamination due to dropping solution.
● Do not stare at the laser beam from the 2D bar code reader.
For details, refer to the operating manual. The operating manual can be downloaded from the website
of the 2D bar code reader manufacturer.
● Observe the rated water pressure stated in the Specification of the instrument.
If the water pressure is high, water may leak and cause electric shock or the instrument may stop.
● Do not use any CF card other than the one that comes with the instrument. Also, run a virus
check before inserting the CF card.
● Turn off the power before performing cleaning.
Unless otherwise instructed in this manual, always turn off the power and disconnect the power plug
before cleaning the instrument. Do not spill liquid inside the instrument while cleaning it. If cleaner is
used, follow the safety precautions provided by its manufacturer and safety rules set by each test
laboratory.
● Secure the instrument with seismic anchorage (optional) to prevent it from moving/falling in
case of earthquake.
Provide fall prevention measure to prevent the instrument from moving should a disaster occur.
● Do not apply excessive force on the display.
The display may break and cause injury.
● Do not remove the warning/caution labels.
Without these labels, the operators cannot be reminded of the necessary warning/cautionary
information in the day-to-day handling of the instrument, which may result in unexpected problems.
● Do not use damaged accessories (reservoirs, baskets, basket adapters, etc.).
The accessories deteriorate from use over time. If deteriorated accessories are used, unexpected
problems may occur. Check the accessories before use.
● Do not put solution, etc., on the instrument. Also, do not spill solution on the painted surfaces,
caution/warning labels or touch screen.
If solution is spilled over the instrument, the instrument may fail or sustain damage.
● Do not spill solution inside or outside the instrument.
If solution was spilled, turn off the power to the instrument and then quickly wipe off the spilled
solution. The instrument may stop or the facility may be damaged, etc. Also, other solution may be
contaminated. Do not use any contaminated solution.
● Put the lids on other stations when exchanging solution.
If solution is spilled during exchange, other stations may be contaminated. Also, do not use, but
always replace, any contaminated station.
● Do not put any obstacle within the moving range of the arm.
Failure may occur.
