9. If other external modules are present, plug the power cable to the AC Input connector of
each module, and to the wall outlet.
10. Power on the GC.
a. Plug the power cable to the AC Input connector into the back of the GC and to the
wall outlet.
b. Flip up the power switch (breaker) to the position I.
11. Set the normal working conditions.
Note Some of the cleaning procedures in this section require the use of methanol.
If methanol is unavailable or prohibited, substitute LCMS-grade or GC-grade ethanol
or isopropyl alcohol. Do not use denatured ethanol as it may contain impurities that
contaminate the GC-MS system.
Before maintaining the detector, read the following precautions:
WARNING Carry out all the operations at low temperature to avoid burns. Therefore,
before beginning maintenance, cool the detector to room temperature.
CAUTION When handling organic solvents, you must take precautions to avoid health
hazards.
ATTENTION Pendant la manipulation de solvants organiques, prenez les mesures
nécessaires pour éviter tout risque sanitaire.
