Subject section
Thematically-related subject contents are described in each topic section. A
topic section is the smallest unit of information with its own
– page numbering,
– header bar,
– list of contents,
–
index,
– device classification and
– its own revision status.
Subject sections form the basis of the manual. A topic section can be
simultaneously assigned to several manuals. Subject sections are in one, in
some cases two, languages.
