CAUTION To maintain the correct alignment the screws must be tightened in turn, and
each screw must be tightened only a small amount before moving to the next screw.
Repeat until all are secure.
ATTENTION Pour maintenir le bon alignement, les vis doivent être serrées à tour de rôle,
et chaque vis ne doit être serrée qu'un peu avant de passer à la vis suivante. Répétez jusqu'à
ce que tous soient sécurisés.

CAUTION DO NOT loosen or remove caps from the TRACE 1600/1610 until you have
purged gas lines, and you are ready to connect them. Loosening or removing caps early
will contaminate instruments and filters.
ATTENTION NE PAS desserrer ou retirer les capuchons du TRACE 1600/1610 avant
d'avoir purgé les conduites de gaz et d'être prêt à les brancher. Desserrer ou retirer les
capuchons trop tôt entraînera la contamination des instruments et des filtres.
WARNING Before using gases, carefully read the hazard indications and information
reported in the Safety Sheet supplied by the manufacturer referring to the CAS (Chemical
Abstract Service) number. It is the user's responsibility to see that all local safety
regulations for the use of gases are obeyed.
All Thermo Fisher Scientific gas chromatographs use an inert gas as the carrier gas. If you
wish to use hydrogen as a carrier gas, you must install a hydrogen sensor. Contact a
Thermo Fisher Scientific sales representative if you plan to use hydrogen as the carrier gas
in your new TRACE 1600/1610. If you don't have the hydrogen sensor, you must use an
inert carrier gas.
Thermo Fisher Scientific FSEs are not authorized to install or repair any instrument using
hydrogen as a carrier gas unless the instrument is equipped with the appropriate sensor.
