2.7 First Run
Plug in the centrifuge. If an arrow key is pressed first, the
display will briefly show 10,000 RPM, 1:00 minute and 25
°C (RF only) the default set values. Press the Stop/Open
Cover button to release the cover interlock. Open the
cover. Remove any loose material from the rotor chamber.
Install a rotor, as described in Section 3.1. Close the cover
and press it down until it latches.
Use the up or down arrow buttons to select Set
parameters. Experiment with the buttons to see how they
control the displayed settings. Press and hold a button to
scroll quickly. This does not activate the rotor. Note that,
when you release all buttons for over 3 seconds, the
display returns to Actual readings.
Select an appropriate time, speed and temperature (RF
only) and then press the START button. The rotor will
accelerate to set speed, spin for the set time, and brake to
a stop. Press the Stop/Open Cover button to release the
safety interlock.
