be as user-friendly as possible, with no need for reg-
ular maintenance. In the event of any repair require-
ments, please contact your local supplier.

Cleaning the instrument

Periodically clean the exterior of the instrument us-
ing a lint-free cloth dampened with water. Pay spe-
cial attention to cleaning the display. Take care that
no liquid comes in contact with the edges of the
display, the measurement well, or the connectors.
If necessary, a mild detergent may be used. Do not
use organic solvents or corrosive substances. Spills
of potentially infectious material should be wiped
off immediately with absorbent paper tissue and
the contaminated areas swabbed with a standard
disinfectant or 70% ethyl alcohol. Materials used to
clean spills, including gloves, should be disposed of
as hazardous biowaste.

New software can be uploaded to the instrument via
a USB drive, in line with the instructions presented
on the screen. Ask your local supplier for more in-
