NOTICE
Analytical instruments for in vitro diagnostic application involve the handling of human samples and controls
which should be considered at least potentially infectious. Therefore every part and accessory of the respective
instrument which may have come into contact with such samples must equally be considered as potentially
infectious.
BIOHAZARD
The „BIOHAZARD“ warning label must be affixed to instrument prior to first use with biological material !
Servicing Note:
Before doing any servicing on the instrument it is very important to thoroughly disinfect all possibly contaminated
parts. Before the instrument is removed from the laboratory for disposal or servicing, it must be decontaminated.
Decontamination should be performed by authorised well-trained personnel only, observing all necessary safety
precautions. Instruments to be returned have to be accompanied by a decontamination certificate completed by
the responsible laboratory manager. If a decontamination certificate is not supplied, the returning laboratory will
be responsible for charges resulting from non-acceptance of the instrument by the servicing centre, or from
authority’s interventions.

Select a location not exposed to direct sunlight. The HUMAREADER HS should be placed on a smooth surface with
sufficient working space. The front edge of the instrument should be close to the edge of the table. Avoid excessive
vibrations (e.g. from a centrifuge).
Note: the ambient working temperature should be between 10°-40°C, with humidity between 20%-85%.
In order to ensure the proper functioning of the instrument, the following environmental conditions must be
avoided:
-large temperature fluctuations
-temperatures outside the recommended range
-dust
-proximity to equipment that generates an electromagnetic field
The mains supply must fulfill the following requirements:
-AC90V-AC250V
-50-60Hz
-120VA
Note:
-The AC mains supply must be well earthed
-Grasp the plug itself, not at the power cord, to unplug the power cord.
