Repair Service

You may have the multimeter repaired at an Agilent Technologies service
center whether it is under warranty or not. Contact the nearest Agilent Sales
Office for shipping instructions prior to returning the instrument.

Serial Number

Agilent instruments are identified by a two part, ten-character serial number
of the form 0000A00000. The first four digits are the same for all identical
products. They change only when a change is made to the product. The letter
indicates the country of origin. An A indicates the product was made in the
United States of America. The last five digits are unique to each instrument.
The multimeter's serial number is located to the right of the multimeter's rear
terminals.

Shipping Instructions

If you need to ship the multimeter, be certain that the multimeter is in a
protective package (use the original shipping containers and cushioning
materials) to prevent transit damage. Such damage is not covered by
warranty. Attach a tag to the shipment identifying the owner and indicating
the service or repair needed. Include the model number and serial number of
the multimeter. We suggest that you insure the shipment.
