Prime Reagents
Steps for priming reagents include cleaning the flow cell holder, loading a priming flow
cell, confirming proper flow, and then starting the prime.
Clean the Flow Cell Holder
1 Open the flow cell compartment door.
CAUTION
Do not place fluids on the flow cell compartment door or on the flow cell stage when the
door is open. Spills in this area can damage the instrument.
2 Make sure that the flow cell lever is in the OFF position.

3 Put on a new pair of powder-free latex gloves.
4 If the flow cell from a previous run is present, remove it and set aside in a tube of
storage buffer or laboratory-grade water to keep it from drying out. It can be used to
confirm proper flow before loading the clustered flow cell.
5 Using an alcohol wipe or a lint-free tissue moistened with ethanol or isopropanol,
carefully wipe the surface of the flow cell holder until it is clean.
CAUTION
Do not allow alcohol to drip into the vacuum holes or around the manifolds. Use a low-lint
lab tissue to dry the stage, if necessary.
