Emptying the Stain Waste Container

The stain waste is collected in a container located behind the system. Empty the container
periodically or whenever the system indicates that the container is full.
Stain waste must be collected using the tube and container specified by local regulation.
Stain waste contains methanol. Methanol is a solvent that may destroy an inappropriate
connection and cause leaks that are dangerous for the user and damaging to the
instrument.
Dispose of waste according to local regulatory requirements.
Make sure that the Autoslide module is not processing slides while you disconnect the
stain waste container
IMPORTANT
Local laws and regulations protect the environment and encourage resource conservation
by regulating the disposal of hazardous wastes. Because some of the wastes generated by
the analyzer may be classified as hazardous waste, you must be familiar with the
applicable hazardous waste handling and disposal laws and regulations in your area.

Running the Daily Startup Manually

Your system can be set to run the startup procedure at a preset time. However, if the
system is not set to do so, or if you are starting it at a different time, perform the
following steps.
