5.10 Reagent vessels in the load drawer

Warning
• It is absolutely necessary to ensure that the reagent filled in the reagent vessel is compatible with
the mounting medium!
• The user must monitor the levels of the reagent vessels to ensure they are sufficient.
• If the instrument is to be in a non-running state for a moderate period of time or if the
HistoCore SPECTRA CV is not to be used for a long period of time (longer than 5 days), cover or
empty the reagent vessels in the load drawer in order to prevent evaporation of the filled reagent
and to prevent the formation of vapors.
• If the HistoCore SPECTRA CV is used in conjunction with the HistoCore SPECTRA ST
as a workstation, the user must ensure that the last stations in the staining program of
the HistoCore SPECTRA ST are filled with the same reagent as the load stations of the
HistoCore SPECTRA CV.
• Racks newly inserted into the load drawer are detected after closing the load drawer and displayed in
the according color (→ Fig. 48-1).
