Personal Safety Considerations
WARNING This is a Safety Class I product (provided with a protective
earthing ground incorporated in the power cord). The
mains plug shall only be inserted in a socket outlet
provided with a protective earth contact. Any interruption
of the protective conductor, inside or outside the
instrument, is likely to make the instrument dangerous.
Intentional interruption is prohibited.
If this instrument is not used as specified, the protection
provided by the equipment could be impaired. This
instrument must be used in a normal condition (in which
all means of protection are intact) only.
No operator serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to
qualified personnel. To prevent electrical shock, do not
remove covers.
For continued protection against fire hazard, replace the
line fuse(s) only with fuses of the same type and rating (for
example, normal blow, time delay, etc.). The use of other
fuses or material is prohibited.
