2.5 Safety information
If failure or malfunctioning occurs during operation of the 796 Titroprocessor
we recommend that the diagnostic functions are first used to try and deter-
mine the cause (see page 260). If this does not help to rectify the failure or if
the cause of the malfunction cannot be remedied then please consult the
service department of your local Metrohm agency.
If opening the instrument cannot be avoided then the following safety
measures must be strictly observed:
The instrument must be disconnected from all electricity sup-
plies before opening. Make sure the mains plug has been pulled
out.
Only in exceptional cases should the instrument be opened while it is
switched on. As this exposes current-conducting components it should only
be undertaken by an expert who is familiar with the associated dangers.
Electronic components are sensitive to static electricity and can be de-
stroyed by discharges. Before touching any components inside the instru-
ment both the person and his tools should be earthed by grasping an
earthed object (e.g. the instrument housing or a radiator) in order to elimi-
nate any static electricity.
If it becomes apparent that the instrument can no longer be operated safely
then it should not be used at all.
