6 Operation and maintenance
6.1 Care
The instrument requires appropriate care. Excess contamination of the
instrument may result in malfunctions and a reduction in the lifetime of
the sturdy mechanical and electronic components.
The instrument must be cleaned immediately if chemicals or solvents are
spilled on it. In particular, the plug connections (particularly the power
plug) have to be protected from contamination.
CAUTION
The instrument has been designed so that liquid is largely prevented
from being able to get inside the instrument. However, unplug the
power plug immediately if you suspect that corrosive media have got-
ten inside the instrument. This is the only way to prevent extreme dam-
age to the instrument electronics. Notify Metrohm Service.
WARNING
Untrained personnel may not open the instrument's housing.
6.2 Maintenance by Metrohm Service
Maintenance of the instrument is best carried out as part of annual ser-
vice, which is performed by specialist personnel from Metrohm. A shorter
maintenance interval is recommended if you frequently work with caustic
and corrosive chemicals. Metrohm Service offers every form of technical
advice for maintenance and service of all Metrohm instruments.
