<--The most up to date information on instrument calibration and performance is given in the SPIRE Observers' Manual. This is the reference document used by all the rest of the SPIRE user guides (eg data reduction guide, cookbooks etc). Sometimes it may happen that outdated values are quoted in some of the documents. In such a case use the values given in the SPIRE Observers' Manual. -->

An update to the SPIRE OM is imminent (Dec 2013), the information in the current version is outdated, especially on performance, flux calibration uncertainties, colour corrections and extended source correction factors. Please use the information in the SPIRE Data Reduction Guide available form the HIPE-user documentation for latest released version (html).
