Calibration & QC
To clean the white calibration bar, perform the following steps:
1. Remove the insert from the test table.
2. Remove the test table by pulling it slowly out of the analyzer.
3. Drain the drip tray, if necessary.
4. Examine the white calibration bar on the test table for dirt or
discoloration.
5. If the white calibration bar appears clean and unmarked, perform
the following steps:
a. Place the test table into the analyzer by holding the table at
the end opposite the white calibration bar, with the white
calibration bar facing upward.
b. Push the test table firmly but slowly, just over halfway into the
analyzer.
c. Place the test table insert.
CAUTION
Do not touch the calibration bar while you examine it or after
you clean it. Your fingerprints or lint on the bar could cause
unreliable test results. When you examine the white
calibration bar, do it carefully under good lighting.
CAUTION
Do not push the test table fully into the analyzer. The test
table might jam and prevent you from using the analyzer.
