precipitate from previous leaks or spills. (Use whatever cleaner the lab
routinely uses.)
NOTE: In the absence of a preferred laboratory disinfectant, use a bleach solution
containing approximately 500 ppm available chlorine. (If using standard household
bleach, this is a 1/100 dilution in diH20.) Bleach solutions stronger than this are
corrosive and will damage the exterior of the Access 2 instrument.
3. Ensure that all covers fit snugly, and that all hardware is in place.
4. Record the system ID number in the appropriate field on the system
identification card and apply the card holder to the front of the AU.

appropriate Service Order number(s).
6. Assemble all system manuals and then review the completed Access
System Installation Record with the customer. Have the customer sign the
installation record in the space provided. Place a copy in the “Installation
Documentation” tabbed section of the Installation Implementation Guide.
7. Complete the Service Order or document the service activity in the
appropriate system. Place a hard copy of the report or service record in
