CARE AND MAINTENANCE

To ensure optimal performance of your instrument, we recommend annual preventative
maintenance by an authorized LABOMED dealer. If a failure occurs which cannot be
corrected using the troubleshooting table, attach a sign to the instrument stating that it is
"out of order" and contact your dealer for assistance.
