WARNING:
When you clean the analyzer, always wear gloves, a lab coat, and safety goggles.
If you accidentally touch a contaminant, immediately rinse the contaminated area thoroughly under
running water, and then disinfect the area.
Seek medical assistance if necessary.
WARNING:
Always unplug the power cord before cleaning. (Cleaning of the transfer bar and cleaning around the
PF unit are excluded.)
WARNING:

CAUTION:
Before cleaning and maintaining the analyzer, get training from our technical support staff.
CAUTION:
Refer to each section for information about usable solvents for cleaning and decontamination.
CAUTION:
Do not use alcohol to clean the sampler cover (translucent). Otherwise, the surface will be damaged.
IMPORTANT:
After cleaning, always connect the power cord, switch on the power, and then check operation.
IMPORTANT:
If you do not perform the maintenance in this manual, the analyzer’s performance and specifications
will not be maintained, which may negatively affect the measurement values.
IMPORTANT:
Be sure to reassemble the parts removed for maintenance and tighten thumbscrews securely. Other-
wise, measurement values may be negatively affected.
NOTE
If the LCD (touch panel section) becomes soiled, use a soft cloth or a cloth soaked in a small
