Search examples: Important principles<br />
• <strong>Manual</strong> <strong>Codes</strong> will often retrieve unique relevant<br />
answers compared to text searching<br />
– Its difficult to take into account all synonym text terms<br />
• Unlike IPC, <strong>Manual</strong> <strong>Codes</strong> are assigned to the<br />
inventive features plus major uses/applications<br />
– <strong>Manual</strong> <strong>Codes</strong> will therefore often retrieve unique<br />
relevant hits compared to IPC searching<br />
• If 3 or more concepts from the same hierarchy<br />
apply, then only the generic code will be indexed<br />
– For complete retrieval of a specific concept, search for<br />
the specific and generic <strong>Manual</strong> Code using ‘OR’<br />
