The following information applies especially to high viscous solutions:
 During the blow-out (Blow), keep the rocker pressed down if the liquid is flowing out at a slow
rate to ensure that the liquid can securely flow out. If you keep the rocker pressed during the
blow-out (Blow), the piston in the pipette will remain at its lowest position.
 Wipe any outer wetting against the wall of the tube while holding the rocker pressed down.
 Leave the dispensing vessel with the rocker pressed down. The rocker may only be released
outside of the dispensing vessel. The piston will only move to its basic position after the
rocker has been released.
 Press the rocker down again to repeat the blow-out (Blow) as necessary.
Hint!
Stopping the piston movement
Pressing the rocker in the other direction when the piston is still moving will stop the piston
movement. You can then move the piston either up or down by pressing the rocker in the
corresponding direction. Pressing the rocker up will abort a mixing process.
Operating modes with the rocker pressed down: in the Man mode, the ongoing piston movement
is immediately stopped by releasing the rocker. In the Ads mode, an ongoing dispensing step is
completed after the rocker is released. The next dispensing step is only performed when the
rocker is pressed accordingly.
