1.5 Disposal Management Concept
The currently valid local regulations governing disposal must be observed. It is in
the responsibility of the user to arrange proper disposal of the individual
components.
All parts which may comprise potentially infectious materials have to be
disinfected by suitable validated procedures (autoclaving, chemical treatment)
prior to disposal. Applicable local regulations for disposal have to be carefully
observed.
The instruments and electronic accessories (without batteries, power packs etc.)
must be disposed off according to the regulations for the disposal of electronic
components.
Batteries, power packs and similar power source have to be dismounted from
electric/electronic parts and disposed off in accordance with applicable local re-
gulations.
1.6 Biohazard warning
Analytical instruments for diagnostic application involve the handling of hu-
man 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 consi-
dered as potentially infectious.
For safety reasons, we have labeled instruments with the„BIOHAZARD“ war-
ning label below.

observing all necessary safety precautions.
Instruments to be returned have to be accompanied by a decontamination
certificate completed by the responsible laboratory manager.
