Note: You may notice a tiny droplet of polymer inside the fitting (residual from the pouch filling
process). This is not expected to cause any performance issues.

Store partially used polymer
If you remove a polymer pouch for storage (2–8°C), place a pouch cap (Cat. No. 4462785) onto the
pouch. Install an empty pouch or conditioning reagent pouch on the instrument to prevent desiccation
of any residual polymer on the connector. Follow the instructions in the maintenance wizards to ensure
proper installation of the polymer pouch.

WARNING! SHARP The electrodes on the load-end of the capillary array have small, blunt ends that
can lead to piercing injury.
IMPORTANT! Wear appropriate protection, including gloves, laboratory goggles, and coat whenever
you work with the fluids used on this instrument, or parts that may come into contact with these fluids.
