1. Inspect the shipping container for damage. If the shipping container or

cushioning material is damaged, it should be kept until the contents of

the shipment have been checked for completeness and the instrument

has been checked mechanically and electrically.

2. If the contents are incomplete, if there is mechanical damage or defect,

or if the instrument does not pass the electrical performance test, contact

the nearest Agilent Technologies Sales and Service office. Refer to the

Service and Support information in the front matter of this manual.

Agilent Technologies will arrange for repair or replacement of the

damaged or defective equipment. Keep the shipping materials for the

carrier's inspection.

instrument requires original shipping containers and materials or their

equivalents. Agilent Technologies can provide packaging materials

identical to the original materials. Refer to Service and Support

information in the front matter of this manual for the Agilent

Technologies nearest you. Attach a tag indicating the type of service

required, return address, model number, and serial number. Mark the

refer to the instrument by model number and serial number.

When you install the attenuator, make sure that the connectors do not
