Maintenance - Human COMBILYZER Plus User Manual

5 MAINTENANCE

Cleaning: To keep your COMBILYZER Plus in perfect condition never leave
used strips in the strip holding tray. The COMBILYZER Plus checks the tray
before switching off and opens it to remind the user when there is a strip left
inside. The only required maintenance activity is to rinse and wipe out the strip
holder with a dry cotton cloth each day before switching off the instrument.
Warning! Since urine is a fluid of human origin, biological risks cannot be ruled
out. Handle used strips and urine contaminants with care!
Battery recharge: The COMBILYZER Plus's portable Reader Unit is powered by
3 AA size rechargeable batteries. Their fully charged capacity is sufficient for
about 300 test measurements, sufficient for about a half-year of operation.
The Portable Reader Unit operates on batteries only in stand-alone mode.
Docking it with the Printer Station, will recharge the batteries. The Reader Unit
can also be powered by connecting the power adapter directly to its socket. If
batteries are discharged, the instrument cannot be switched on. When batteries
are low a „Battery low" message appears on the LCD.
In case the screen hasn't been touched for a while, the COMBILYZER Plus will
shut down to save energy; after 2,5 minutes if operated on batteries and after 5
minutes if connected to mains.
