1. At the time of manufacture, the hardware related to many of these options was fully adjusted and the option performance was verified to be within its
warranted specifications. Within two years of the initial calibration date of the analyzer, this option is fully calibrated with no further adjustment or
verification testing.
2. If this analyzer has been adjusted as part of a repair or calibration during its first two years, or if the analyzer is more than two years old, additional
adjustment and performance verif ication tests are required to ensure that some newly installed options are functioning properly. However, the completion
of these tests does not guarantee that the analyzer meets all warranted specifications.
3. This upgrade option is for instruments ordered before May 1, 2011.
