1) After installing the machine，put the power on and enter into the system

2) Test blank once，after that it will show the data for the background check .Repeat

blank test till the values of all the five parameters namely WBC, RBC, HgB,PLT and

MCV are within the acceptable range.

3) Once Blank is in acceptable range patient samples can be tested . Put the patient

sample under the sample probe and press the start key . Ensure that bubble is not

entering during the aspiration procedure . Move the sample tube along with the

sample probe so that sample enters correctly into the measuring chamber.

4) Before the test is completed no other operation can be executed . After completion

the needle come back to the home position and is ready for the next sample

aspiration.

5) Press the key “print”. The results are printed on the thermal printer paper

6) After finishing measure sample click the right key，the menu will pop-up

last bar of the menu is “shutdown” key，press this key，it will show “please

shutdown power “ a few minutes later, operator can turn off the power.

 Chapter 3- MAINTENANCE

As other precision instrument, only careful daily service and periodic

maintenance can keep the instrument in a good working status, and can we get the

reliable results and have few errors

This chapter introduces some preventive methods for service and maintenance.

If you want to have more information, please contact the customer service department of

MERIL DIAGNOSTICS PVT LTD.

According to the requirements for maintenance of the instrument during the procedures,

we divide the preventive service and maintenance into the following types: daily, weekly,

monthly, yearly and maintenance according to actual need.

Warning:

It is important for the hospital or organization that employs this instrument to

carry out a reasonable maintenance schedule. Neglecting of this may result in machine

breakdown.

3.1 ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

3.1.1 Clean the Appearance

Wipe the appearance of the instrument with neutral detergent or distilled water.

Caution:

 Avoid using corrosive acids, alkali, and volatile organic solvent such as: acetone,
ether, chloroforms to wipe the appearance of instrument. Only neutral detergent

should be used.

 Avoid wiping the inner of the instrument.

8-
3.1.2 Replace Fuse
The fuse is installed in the fuse-box on the side of power switch. Open the box to

replace the fuse

Appointed specification fuse: AC 250V 2A

Warning:

Only appointed specification fuse can be used.

3.1 Daily Maintenance

It can be divided into two types: run and shutdown.

 Run

The instrument has installed daily maintenance procedure. On running, it can execute

auto cleaning procedure according to the quantity of the sample to keep the

instrument in good working status.

The general setting principles are:

Working time > 8 hours, auto-cleaning time=8 hours;

4 hours<Working time<8 hours, auto-cleaning time=4 hours;

Working time< 4 hours, auto-cleaning time=2 hours;

The auto-cleaning time will decrease 1 hour year by year.

 Shutdown

When the instrument is shutdown, it will run daily shutdown auto cleaning procedure.

You only need to clean the workbench and wipe the appearance of instrument when

the power-off.

3.2 Weekly Maintenance

This instrument has installed weekly maintenance procedure.

Act as follows:

a) Prepare E-Z cleanser and probe cleanser.

9-
 b) In the main operation window, press the right key of the mouse. In the menu area,

select "Service/Maintenance". Operate as the screen shows.

c) Turn off the power supply.

3.3 Monthly Maintenance

It is necessary to clean the dust of the instrument monthly.

Operate as follows:
a) Turn off the power supply, and pull out the power line.

b) Hold up the air filter cover with slotted screwdriver. Take off the cover and the

net.

c) Clean them with neutral detergent brush and put them in the shade.

d) Airing naturally .Brush away the dust clinging on the air filter grid at the rear

panel of instrument.

e) Put the air filter grid on the air filter net carefully. Planish them.

Notice:

Only can use the neutral detergent cleaning the air filter. Avoid airing it with heat.

3.4 Yearly Maintenance

It's necessary to perform preventive maintenance once every year. Because of

the high -requirements of yearly maintenance, the maintenance should be performed by

the authorized engineer of MERIL DIAGNOSTICS PVT LTD. Please contact the customer

service department MERIL DIAGNOSTICS PVT LTD of before yearly maintenance.

MAINTENANCE BEFORE TRANSPORT OR FOR THE INSTRUMENT

THAT WILL NOT BE USED FOR A LONG TIME

If the instrument is not going to be used in 2 weeks or longer, or needs to be

packed and transported, perform he following procedures:
 In the main operation window, press the right key of the mouse, choose
"Service/Park" in the menu.

 Operate as screen shows.

 Rotate the bottle covers of reagents and store them in proper condition . User
should perform efficient action to prevent the material from deteriorating.

 Plug the stopples which were pulled out at the first installation into the
corresponding tube connector.

 Pull out diluent connection tube, rinse connection tube, lyse connection tube and
waste connection tube and clean them with distilled water. Dry them in shady

place,then packing them into plastics.

 Pull out the power wire,packing it in plastics after cleaning with neutral detergent.
 Put the instrument and parts packed in plastics into packing cases.
