“WARNING” and “CAUTION” with the safety alert symbol
operations that could be dangerous to you or other persons using this centrifuge. The definitions of
signal words are as follows:
WAR NI NG ：Personal Danger
Warning notes indicate any condition or practice, which if not strictly observed, could result in personal
injury or possible death.
CAUTION：Possible damage to centrifuge
Caution notes indicate any condition or practice, which if not strictly observed or remedied, could result in
damage or destruction of the centrifuge.
NOTE：Notes indicate an area or subject of special merit, emphasizing either the product’s capability or
common errors in operation or maintenance.
z Do not operate the centrifuge in any manner not described in this User Manual. When in doubt or
to call your attention to items or
have any troubles with this centrifuge, ASK FOR HELP.
z The precautions described in this User Manual are carefully developed in an attempt to cover all the
possible risks. However, it is also important that you are alert for unexpected incidents. Be careful
operating this centrifuge.
WAR NI N G
z This centrifuge is not explosion-proof. Never use explosive or flammable samples.
z Do not install the centrifuge in or near places where inflammable gases are generated or chemicals are
stored.
z Do not place dangerous materials within 30cm of the centrifuge.
z Prepare all necessary safety measures before using samples that are toxic, radioactive or contaminated
1
with pathogenic micro-organisms. Use of these is at your own responsibility.
z If the centrifuge, rotor and accessories that have been contaminated by solutions with toxic,
radioactive or pathogenic materials, clean it according to the decontamination procedure as specified.
z If you require service at site, please sterilize and decontaminate the centrifuge in advance, and then
notify the service center the details of the materials and procedure.
z To avoid electrical shocks, insure hands are dry before handling the power cord or turning on/off the
power switch.
z For safety purposes, do not enter within 30cm around this centrifuge when it is in operation.
z While the rotor is rotating, never release the door lock.
z Unauthorized repairs, disassembly, or modifying the centrifuge except by our service center are
strictly prohibited.
CAUTION
z This centrifuge must be located on a firm and level table.
z Make sure the centrifuge is horizontal before running.
z Make sure the angle between the door and cover is greater than 70 degrees when opening the door.
z Be careful not put your fingers or hands between the door and cover while the door is open.
z Do not move or relocate the centrifuge when it is running.
z If fluid spills in the rotor chamber, please promptly clean and dry with a dry cloth to avoid sample
contamination.
z Ensure to remove any objects and fragments of the tubes dropped inside the rotor chamber before
running the centrifuge.
z Cautions with rotor
(1) Always check for corrosion and damage on the rotor surface before using it. Do not use the rotor
if an abnormality is found.
(2) Do not set the speed beyond the allowable minimum speed of the rotor kits (rotor and adapters).
Make sure to run it below the allowable maximum speed.
(3) Do not exceed the allowable imbalance.
(4) Use the rotor and tubes within their actual capacities.
(5) If the rotor is attached with a lid, ensure it is tightened before operation.
z If any abnormal condition occurs during operation, please stop it immediately and contact our service
center. Notify the service center is a warning code if displayed.

2. Declaration of Conformity
Construction in accordance with the following safety standards:
EN 61010-1
EN 61010-2-10
Construction in accordance with the following EMC standards:
EN 61326-1/ FCC Part 15 Subpart B/ IECS 001
Associated EU guidelines:
EMC-guidelines: 2004/108/EC
Centrifuge guidelines: 2006/95/EC
This ISM device complies with Canadian ICES-001.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the
user's authority to operate the equipment.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with
the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this
