InstallatIon
Upon receiving the VWR Mini/Microplate Shaker, check to ensure that no damage has
occurred during shipment. It is important that any damage that occurred in transport
is detected at the time of unpacking. If you do find such damage the carrier must be
notified immediately.
After unpacking, place the Mini/Microplate Shaker on a level bench or table, away
from explosive vapors. Secure to an immovable work surface by pressing down on
the four (4) corners of the unit, creating a strong suction to the work surface (DO NOT
place on a bench mat). Ensure that the surface on which the unit is placed will withstand
typical heat produced by the unit. Always place the unit on a sturdy work surface.
The Mini/Microplate Shaker is supplied with a power cord that is inserted into the IEC
connector on the back of the unit first, then it can be plugged into a properly grounded
outlet. The 230V unit plugs into a 230 volt, 50/60 Hz source.
MaIntenance & servIcIng
The Mini/Microplate Shaker is built for long, trouble-free, dependable service. No
lubrication or other technical user maintenance is required. However at least every
three (3) months you should:
• Unplug the unit.
• Remove any accumulated dirt from the base and tray.
• Check all accessible items to make sure they are properly tightened.
The unit should be given the care normally required for any electrical appliance. Avoid
wetting or unnecessary exposure to fumes. Spills should be removed promptly. DO NOT
use a cleaning agent or solvent on the front panel which is abrasive or harmful to plas-
tics, nor one which is flammable. Always ensure the power is disconnected from the unit
prior to any cleaning. If the unit ever requires service, contact your VWR representative.
Intended Use
The Mini/Microplate Shaker is intended for use in research laboratories and for gen-
eral laboratory use.

accumulated time. The up/down arrows will become inactive. To stop timer, press
the on/off button again. IMPORTANT: This will NOT interrupt the shaking
function. Press the on/off button below the speed display to interrupt the
shaking function.
d. To reset, press and hold the on/off button below the time display. After three (3)
seconds the display will indicate the previous set time, which was zero (0:00).
4. Setting timed mode: Programmed time.

time.
b. Start this function by pressing the on/off button below the time display. The unit
will run for the selected time, the up/down arrows will become inactive while
the timer is running. The unit will stop shaking when time display reaches zero
(0:00). Four (4) audible beeps will indicate the count down function is complete.
The time display will default back to the set time. To repeat for the same time,
simply press the on/off button again.
c. To interrupt an automatic timing cycle before it is completed, press the on/off
button below the time display. The display will flash off and on to indicate the

The Mini/Microplate Shakers have been designed for the speed and time functions to
work independently of one another. The speed can be reset without resetting the timer
and the timer can be stopped and started without interrupting the shaking function.

InstallatIon
Dès réception de l’agitateur mini/microplaques VWR, vérifiez l’absence de dommages
survenus pendant le transport. Il est important que tout dommage résultant du transport soit
détecté lors du déballage. Informez immédiatement le transporteur en cas de dommage.
Après le déballage, placez votre agitateur mini/microplaques sur un plan de travail ou une
table de niveau, à l’écart de toute vapeur explosive. Fixez l’appareil à un plan de travail
stable en appuyant sur ses quatre (4) coins afin de créer une forte adhérence au plan de
travail (NE l’installez PAS sur une table antistatique). Assurez-vous que la surface sur
laquelle le système est placé résiste à la chaleur généralement produite par le système.
Placez toujours l’appareil sur un plan de travail solide.
L’agitateur mini/microplaques est fourni avec un cordon d’alimentation qu’il vous faut tout
d’abord insérer dans le connecteur IEC situé au dos de l’appareil avant de le brancher dans
une prise correctement mise à la terre. L’appareil de 230 V se branche dans une source
d’alimentation de 230 volts, 50/60 Hz.
MaIntenance et réParatIon
Votre agitateur mini/microplaques est construit pour fonctionner longtemps, de façon effi-
cace et sans problème. Aucun graissage ou tout autre entretien n’est requis de la part de
l’utilisateur. Toutefois, vous devez, au moins tous les trois (3) mois:
• débrancher l’appareil.
• nettoyer la saleté accumulée sur la base et le plateau.
