Notice:
column heater or column heater/cooler, always power-off the sample manager and
column heater/cooler before connecting or disconnecting the interconnect cable.
3.6 Configuring maintenance warnings
Maintenance counters, if available for a particular component, provide information about real-time
usage that can help you determine when to schedule routine maintenance for specific
components. You can specify usage thresholds and maintenance warnings that alert you when a
component reaches a specified threshold. Thus you can minimize unexpected failures and
unscheduled downtime during important work. For information explaining how to specify
maintenance warnings, consult the Waters console Help.
