The following caution and safety signs are used in this manual:
WARNING:
Refer to manual
The machine is designed for indoor laboratory use only, at an altitude of less
than 2200m above sea level, within a temperature range of 15°C to 35°C and a
relative humidity range of 5% to 85% non condensing.
If the instrument is stored outside these ranges, it should be left to stand until it
equilibrates to within the above limits.
Ensure that the voltage selection switch is set to the correct voltage and that the
correct fuse for the required voltage setting is fitted.
Do not work outside the rated power supply range.
Use the cleaning method recommended by the manufacturer.
Ensure the unit is only connected to an earthed supply.
There are no user accessible or serviceable parts inside the unit. Do not remove
the unit’s cabinet.
