In this case we should change the english line too, unless this is a false 
friend :

Voyez avec votre administrateur système ?

 

I confirm what Pierre says, in proper french we say « Consultez votre 
administrateur système » ; in english “please see” can be said. I would not say 
it is a false friend, but better proper translation; indeed when you translate 
from language X to language Y you are not obliged to do word-by-word 
translation if you know that in language Y there is another way to say the same 
thing (eg. If you see “when pigs will fly” you won’t translate by “quand les 
cochons voleront” in French, but instead you’ll say “quand les poules auront 
des dents”).

 

[...]

 

Kind regards,
