After the bar code has been scanned once, the instrument will accept all remaining test devices from

10. Immediately before use, open the vial containing the pellet. Remove the cap from the diluent tube by
twisting and pulling the cap simultaneously.
11. Hold the diluent tube vertically. Then, invert the vial containing the pellet so that the pellet falls into
the diluent tube (Figure 5-24). Ensure the pellet does not stick to the side of the diluent tube, as it
will not reconstitute properly. If you are unsure, discard the tube and retry using another WQC
diluent tube and pellet.
