If a flammable liquid has been spilled, immediately take the following
measures to prevent combustion:
• Eliminate all sources of ignition.
• Remove flammable liquid with a non-combustible absorbent material.
• Vent the room.

hazard:
• Never operate the system in an environment containing explosive
mixtures of oxygen, hydrogen, or other flammable gases.

having to be charged for. To avoid this hazard:
• Always handle the system with care.
• Switch off the system and secure it against accidental operation if there
is visible damage to the system or if you have any other reason to
believe that safe operation is no longer possible. This may be assumed:
– If the analyzer is no longer working after a technical malfunction
– After an extended period of storage
– After being transported in harsh conditions
• Only carry out maintenance or replace parts as described in this manual.
• Only use Siemens spare parts.
