6 - TROUBLESHOOTING

If during your work the functioning of the pipette controller is incorrect, check the cause
and remove the fault.
Problem
The pipette falls out (the
holding force of the pipette
is to small), or tilts to the
side too much.
The pump is working, but
the pipette controller aid
does not draw liquid or
draws liquid very slowly.
Liquid leaks from the
pipette (the aspiration
and the dispense buttons
are not pressed)
If the above actions do not help, the device shall be sent to HTL service.
Before that the product should be cleaned and decontaminated. Fill in the questionnaire
available at www.htl.com.pl with precise specification of solutions used and the type
of laboratory, in which the device has been used, and send it together with the product.
