As-Needed Maintenance
Operations
Performing these operations helps maintain your system and keep it
in optimal working condition. Follow the step-by-step instructions
for each operation (found after this section) when using as-needed
maintenance operations:
• Warmup
• Prime
• Backflush
• Alcohol Flush
• Sanitize - may be restricted to reservoir due to volume
requirement
• Wash
• Drain
• Soak
• Self Diagnostics
The following table shows a recommended use schedule for as-
needed maintenance operations.
Note: The Sanitize command
performs a similar function to the
alcohol flush command.
However, the sanitize command
uses 10% household bleach to
decontaminate sample lines and
the cuvette after biohazard
contact.
