How to Find Topics and Procedures
There are four tools to help you find a topic or procedure in the manual.
• General Table of Contents. This table is located in the front of the manual 
and includes the entire document. You can use this table to locate major 
headings throughout the manual. The table also includes a List of Tables 
and a List of Figures.
• Chapter Table of Contents. Each of the succeeding chapters begin with 
their own tables of contents. They contain the same information as the 
general table for the manual, but have the advantage of addressing only 
what is in that chapter.
• Page Headers. Each page in the manual has a header, which can serve as 
a visual aid to help you find a topic. The inside portion of the header, the 
side closest to the binding, always shows the chapter title. The outside 
portion of the header shows the title of the current section.
• Index. Found at the end of the manual, the Index is the most useful device 
for finding individual topics throughout the manual.
