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.
