3.8 STARTING AND STOPPING THE CENTRIFUGE

Before starting the centrifuge, turn on the main switch, open the centrifuge lid, insert
the rotor and load it with test tubes, close the centrifuge lid and set the operation
parameters or select a suitable program.
By pressing the START key, you start the run of the centrifuge.
Message RUN appears on the display and thus indicates that the
centrifuge is running. During acceleration of the rotor, accel-
eration level AcX is displayed, and then the selected operation
parameter displays. During the run of the centrifuge, LID indica-
tor also turns off, and thus indicates that you can't open the lid
during the run.
At the end of the set running time or manual stopping of the
centrifuge, the braking procedure of the rotor is activated, and
the centrifuge stops. The next run is possible, when the rotor
stops completely.
By pressing the STOP key, you stop the run of the centrifuge.
During deceleration of the rotor, deceleration level brX is
displayed, and when the centrifuge stops, selected operation
parameter displays, and message RUN turns off. LID indicator
also turns on, and thus indicates that you can open the lid.
Do not move or knock the centrifuge during operation!
