Changing The Paper - Bayer HealthCare CLINITEK 500 Operating Manual

CARE OF THE INSTRUMENT
6. Disinfect the display screen, if needed, using either
Cidex or Theracide solution (or their equivalent) only;
do NOT use bleach. Wipe the solution on the screen
using a soft, nonabrasive cloth and allow to remain
for 10 minutes. Do NOT spray or pour the disinfec-
tant directly onto the screen. Rinse using a clean, soft
cloth dampened with water, then dry.
NOTE: Repeated or prolonged soaks over a long period
of time with glutaraldehyde solutions may cause a slight
fading or discoloration of the platform and table, and a
cloudy appearance to the push bar; however, these
changes will not affect performance.

Changing the Paper

1. Be sure the instrument is at the Ready/Run screen.
2. Notice the large tab on the back side of the instrument
that secures the cover in place (Figure 5-5). Press in
firmly on the bottom edge of the tab and lift the cover
off.

3. If there is paper remaining on the roll, lift up the roll
and tear the paper between the roll and the printer.
Then gently pull the paper through the printer in its
normal direction of travel or rotate the wheel on the
right side to advance the paper. Otherwise, remove
the empty core.
4. Obtain a new roll of paper (Product No. 5773); unroll
several inches and trim the end into a long "V". Hold
the roll just above the printer, with the paper unrolling
from underneath. Feed the end of the paper under the
roller, then rotate the paper advance wheel in a clock-
wise direction (toward the back) until several inches
of paper are exposed above the printer (Figure 5-6).
Figure 5-6
5. Set the paper into position behind the printer. Then,
place the front tabs of the cover into their slots and
feed the end of the paper through the opening in the
cover. Snap the cover into place.
