4. Replace Strip Tray into the analyzer. Insert the end with the white dot first, aligning the
guides on the bottom of the Strip Tray with the slots in the Tray Carriage (see arrows,
Fig. 19). Tray will gently snap into place.
5. If the Carriage is soiled and requires cleaning, contact Zoetis Technical Support.
Cleaning the VETSCAN UA Analyzer
1. Wipe the analyzer clean with a soft cloth or towel to remove dust and residue. Do not allow
moisture to get onto the touch screen.
WARNING! The VETSCAN UA does not have any user serviceable parts inside the analyzer.
Do not open the analyzer as opening the analyzer will void the warranty. Contact Zoetis
Technical Support if you suspect a problem inside the analyzer.
WARNING! Do not blow high pressure air into the inside of the analyzer to clean it.
WARNING! To prevent electrical shock, always turn off and unplug the UA analyzer before
cleaning it. Unplug the power supply from the wall or disconnect the UA analyzer from the
Y cable. Do not obstruct the power supply.

Running a Check Strip

1. A Check Strip is an artificial test strip that is intended to be run DRY, with no sample or
liquid, in order to test the UA analyzer for proper operation. Run a Check Strip if the analyzer
is being used for the first time, has not been used for more than 1 year, or is providing
unexpected results. Two (2) identical Check Strips are provided with the VETSCAN UA
analyzer kit. Only use Check Strips that are undamaged, not discolored and are not broken.
2. Clean the Strip Tray if it is wet or has urine residue to prevent contamination of the Check
Strips. (See Cleaning the Strip Tray)
