Appendix A Application-related notes and recommendations
For the specimen slide holders to function flawlessly, avoid the following:
• The specimen slide holders must be handled carefully. Do not let them fall or collide with
other objects, which could result in fracture points that can impair the function of the speci-
men slide holders.
• Avoid drying after contact with solvent or water at temperatures over 100 °C and a long time
(e.g. overnight).
For the coverslip magazines to function flawlessly, avoid the following:
• No drying after contact with solvent or water at temperatures over 100 °C and a long time
(e.g. overnight).
A1.2 Specimen slide holders from other manufacturers
Leica provides no warranty for the function of specimen slide holders from other manufacturers
or any warranty for their function in the instrument. The instrument operator bears responsibility
for any use of specimen slide holders from other manufacturers.
• The use of specimen slide holders from other manufacturers requires special bath inserts,
which are listed under Optional Accessories.
• We recommend just as regularly inspecting the specimen slide holders from other manu-
facturers for damage, dirt and deformation. These factors in conjunction with the particular
construction of the specimen slide holders from other manufacturers can jeopardize smooth
function in the instrument. Therefore, particularly when using specimen slide holders from
other manufacturers, make sure that they are in flawless condition.
