the customer’s application or use of the product.
At the customer’s request, Leica Microsystems will provide applicable

for a complete determination of the suitability of the products in combi-
nation with the end product, machine, system, or other application or use.
The following are some examples of applications for which particular
attention must be given. This is not intended to be an exhaustive list of
all possible uses of the products, nor is it intended to imply that the uses
listed may be suitable for the products:
Outdoor use, uses involving potential chemical contamination or electri-
cal interference, or conditions or uses not described in this document.
Nuclear energy control systems, combustion systems, railroad systems,
aviation systems, medical equipment, amusement machines, vehicles,

ment regulations.
Systems, machines, and equipment that could present a risk to life or
property.
Please know and observe all prohibitions of use applicable to the

WHOLE HAS BEEN DESIGNED TO ADDRESS THE RISKS, AND THAT THE Leica
Microsystems PRODUCT IS PROPERLY RATED AND INSTALLED FOR THE
INTENDED USE WITHIN THE OVERALL EQUIPMENT OR SYSTEM.

However, some specifications of the product may be changed without
any notice. When in doubt, special model numbers may be assigned to
fix or establish key specifications for your application on your request.
Please consult with your Leica Microsystems representative at any time to
confirm actual specifications of purchased products.
