Questions and answers
the screen never displayed
The Millipore Synergy screen may never display because:
- The power cord is not plugged in.
- There is no source of electrical power.
- The main power fuse is blown.
To fix this, check that the power cord is plugged in and verify the power source. If the fuse is blown, contact Millipore.
