Safety Precautions
Throughout this guide are important warnings and cautions that you should read and follow
carefully. These safety precautions have the following format and meaning:
WARNING:
Warnings
are used when failure to observe instructions or precautions
could result in injury or death to humans or animals,
or significant
property damage.
CAUTION:
Cautions
are used when failure to observe instructions could result in
permanent damage to equipment or loss of data.
Importance of Communication
In planning the system installation, good communications are essential between the
customer, the facility planner or architect, and Varian on a frequent basis. Any questions or
problems must be addressed immediately to avoid delays and additional costs.
One person from the customer’s institution should be appointed to coordinate site planning
and preparation. This person should represent all users of the system in dealing with Varian
and the facility planner or architect.
We at Varian will make every effort to ensure that the ownership of your new NMR
spectrometer is a lasting and pleasurable experience.
