Select the language at the very top of the page on the right side or directly above the main SERR heading.

The chapters are on the left side of the page in order from 1 to 16.
When a chapter is selected, it will appear on the right side of the page, while the chapter list will remain on the left side for easy navigation. A description of the chapter will be under the main header and each section of the chapter will be listed below that.
Once a chapter section is selected, for example Chapter 1.1, the additional chapter sections (Chapter 1.2, Chapter 1.3, etc…) will be located on the left for navigation purposes.

The SERR website has an easy search function on the top right-hand side of the page that can be used to find specific information.
Type in any keywords that relates to your search to narrow down results and be as specific as possible. Once you click search, it will take you directly to the answer of the question.

Click the “Print this Page” link which is directly under each main chapter heading at the top of the page.

There are no hard copies of the SERR Manual. Please use the website to find the most up to date information.
