Cleaning the Liquid Handler

The liquid handler should be cleaned occasionally

using a dry, clean cloth. Or, if necessary, use a cloth

dipped in soapy water. If liquid is accidentally

spilled on the liquid handler, wipe the instrument

using a dry, clean cloth.

Cleaning the Fluid Path

Depending on your use of the liquid handler, it

may be necessary to flush the entire fluid path.

It’s important to clean the fluid path if you won’t

be using the liquid handler for a while or if you’re

using a solution with a high salt concentration for a

probe wash or as a diluent.

Prime the system using distilled or deionized water.

Check the beaker during the priming sequence to

ensure it always has liquid in it.
