Do not operate the instrument in the presence of flammable gases or fumes.
Do not remove the instrument cover. Only Agilent authorized personnel are
allowed to remove instrument covers. Always disconnect the power cables
and any external circuits before removing the instrument cover.
Do not modify the instrument. Do not install substitute parts or perform any
unauthorized modification to the product. Return the product to an Agilent
Sales and Service Office for service and repair to ensure that safety features
are maintained.
Instruments that appear damaged or defective should be made inoperative
and secured against unintended operation until they can be repaired by
qualified service personnel.
The handling of toxic and hazardous solvents and flammable liquids can
hold health risks. When working with solvents, ensure to observe appropriate
safety procedures (for example, goggles, safety gloves and protective
clothing) as described in the material safety data sheet supplied by the
solvent vendor, especially when toxic or hazardous solvents and flammable
liquids are used. Do not use solvents with an auto-ignition temperature
below 200ºC.
When operating the instrument, keep your hands and clothing away from the
instrument. Do not touch the sample injection probe (SIP) when the
instrument is in operation. Mechanical movable parts within the instrument
can pinch or cause injury to hands or fingers.
To avoid burns, do not touch the fan guards on the back of the instrument.
The fan guards may get hot during and after instrument operation.
