● Samples Analyzed per Reagent Container
• The number of cycles per container refers to the number of
cycles that can be run in CBC+DIFF+RET+NRBC analysis
mode.
● Replacing the Reagent
After replacement of the reagent, perform automatic cleaning,
check that the background count is low, then start the sample
analysis.

Caution!
• Use reagent that has been left at room temperature
(15–30°C) for at least 24 hours.
• In handling a reagent that may have frozen, follow
the precautions given on the package.
Otherwise analysis may not be performed correctly.
• When replacing the reagent container, make sure
that no dust adheres to the cubitainer spout kit.
Otherwise analysis may not be performed correctly.
• After opening a reagent container, make sure that no
dust, dirt or bacteria comes into the container.
Otherwise analysis may not be performed correctly.
