sample tubes. And current washing status will be shown in the LCD channel. During the
washing process, the following error message may appear.
Or
This error message occurs when there is almost no buffer in the bottle during injection. If
the user filled the bottle completely before operation, there is no need to fill up the bottle
with solution or halt operation. If the buffer is not filled completely, it may cause incomplete
operation.
4.5.9 Start operation
