WARNING
When working with solvents please observe appropriate safety procedures (for
example, goggles, safety gloves and protective clothing) as described in the
material handling and safety data sheet supplied by the solvent vendor, especially
when toxic or hazardous solvents are used.
NOTE
The flow cell is shipped with a filling of isopropanol (also recommended when the
instrument and/or flow cell is shipped to another location). This is to avoid breakage due to
subambient conditions.
NOTE
The detector should be operated with the front cover in place to protect the flow cell area
against strong drafts from the outside and to cover the deuterium lamp.
Some types of the Agilent deuterium lamps show a light ring during operation. This is not
harmful, refer to “UV-Radiation” on page 204.
