WARNING!
When cleaning the shaker, always turn off the shaker and disconnect the
power cord from the power supply.
8.1 Routine Maintenance
No routine maintenance schedule is required for the Innova 43 and 43R.
To ensure that your shaker retains its attractive appearance, an occasional cleaning, using
a cloth with conventional household (non-abrasive) cleaner is recommended (see Section
8.2 below for more details).
We also suggest that the area around the shaker be vacuumed or swept to remove dust
and other debris, ensuring proper air flow in and around the shaker.
8.2 Cleaning External & Internal Surfaces
The shaker may be cleaned using a damp cloth or any standard household or laboratory
cleaner to wipe down its outer surfaces. Do not use abrasive or corrosive compounds to
clean this instrument, as they may damage the shaker and void the warranty.
If Biohazard decontamination is required, see Section 8.3 below.
8.3 Biohazard Decontamination
It is the responsibility of the user to carry out appropriate decontamination
procedures if hazardous material is spilled on or inside the equipment. Before
using any cleaning or decontamination method other than those suggested by the
manufacturer, users should check with Eppendorf that the proposed method would
not damage the equipment.
Commercially available household bleach solutions, when diluted at a 1:10 ratio, are
effective in routine decontamination of the instrument. The method for decontaminating
a spill depends upon the nature of the spill.
