Use Manual

• Follow all disinfection instructions specified by the laboratory.
• For any affected samples, have the test result assessed separately by trained
personnel.
CAUTION: Incorrect results caused by manual intervention on the LAS. Manual
intervention or exchanging of samples can cause incorrect assignment of test results
and incorrect patient diagnoses.
• Do not exchange samples in CARs on the LAS.
• Only allow trained personnel to operate the LAS.
• Only use the specified input and output areas to intervene on the LAS.
CAUTION: Incorrect results may constitute a health hazard. Sample contamination can
occur if a robotic arm drops an open sample tube. Sample contamination can cause
delayed or incorrect results, or incorrect patient diagnoses.
• Only allow trained personnel to operate the LAS.
• Specifically assess the situation each time after a fault has occurred.
CAUTION: Delayed analysis due to power failure. In the case of a power failure, the
samples (including emergency samples) will remain inside the LAS and must be removed
manually as required.
• Only allow trained personnel to remove the samples manually.
• If a sample is held by a robot gripper, manually remove the sample.
• Observe the LAS for any remaining emergency samples and remove them manually.
• Follow the information in the operations manuals for the modules.
CAUTION: Overhead obstruction. Operators may hit their heads on open module
covers.
• Be aware that injury or bodily harm can occur when module covers are opened and
closed.
• Protect the head when working on modules with open module covers.
NOTE: If the power supply is interrupted, the current status of the modules is saved and the
modules are powered off automatically. The data is also saved. As soon as the power supply has
been restored, the modules must be initialized manually.
NOTE: For optimal system performance, comply with the following general requirements of the
system:
• Perform frequent visual inspections of the entire LAS.
• Adhere to the LAS maintenance schedule.
• Do not use transmitters, such as mobile phones, in the immediate vicinity of the LAS.
• Do not place objects on the module covers and track hoods.
• Confirm that faulty samples are directed into an error area.
