"Analyzing," remove the micro-tube. After that, the unit executes automatic analysis
and displays the result on the LCD screen. Then the unit turns to the Ready status,
becoming ready for analysis of the next samples.
The screens from the start to the end of analysis are as shown in the following:

• While the LCD screen is displaying "Aspirating," keep holding the
micro-tube in the aforementioned status. If the micro-tube is removed
during its display, correct analysis result may not be obtained.
CAUTION: • Several seconds after the buzzer sounds "beep, beep" and
"Aspirating" appears on the LCD screen, the rinse cup lowers. By that
time, remove the micro-tube.
• To remove the micro-tube, lower it straight down. Take care not to
bend the sample probe.
NOTE: • The sample probe is automatically rinsed, so there is no need to wipe it
clean.
