8. Wipe about 100 mm (4 in.) of the column with a tissue soaked in methanol.
9. Slide the column through the iConnect Column Lock. Pinch the spring at the base of the
iConnect to allow the column to slide through. See
CAUTION When you push the spring to slide the column through the iConnect, keep
the spring pushed. If the spring is in contact with the column while sliding the column,
it might score the protective coating, and affect the seal to the ferrule or cause the
column to break later.
ATTENTION Quand vous enfoncez le ressort pour faire glisser la colonne à travers
l'iConnect, maintenez la pression sur le ressort. Si le ressort entre en contact avec la
colonne pendant le glissement de celle-ci, le revêtement de protection risque d'être
endommagé, avec pour conséquence possible une perte d'étanchéité de la ferrule ou la
casse future de la colonne.
