7.2 DISPOSAL PROCEDURE

All electronic products must be disposed of separately from the municipal waste system.

thoroughly cleaned.

The Silaris Dock should be disposed in appropriate electronic recycling waste. For more information regarding

disposal of the Dock, please contact Sekisui Diagnostics Technical Support at 800-332-1042 (U.S Only)
