If Safety Features are Impaired
If the Analyzer is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection

provided by the Analyzer may be impaired.
Before use, inspect the test leads for mechanical damage and replace damaged test leads!
If the Analyzer or its accessories appear to be impaired or not functioning properly, do

not use it and send it in for repair.

Note

To accommodate connection to various line power sockets, the BC430

Battery Charger / Power Adapter is equipped with a male plug that must be

connected to a line plug adapter appropriate for local use. Since the

Charger is isolated, you can use line plug adapters with or without a

protective ground terminal.

The 230 V rating of the BC430 is not for use in North America. A line plug

adapter complying with the applicable National Requirements may be

provided to alter the blade configurations for a specific country.
