Precautions
Use proper power cord. Use only the power cord shipped with this instrument and certified for the country of
use.
Maintain ground. This product is grounded through the power cord grounding conductor. To avoid electric
shock, connect only to a grounded mating outlet.
Connect and disconnect properly. Do not connect/disconnect probes or test leads while they are connected to
a voltage source.
Observe all terminal ratings. Do not apply a voltage to any input (C1, C2, C3, C4 or EXT) that exceeds the
maximum rating of that input. Refer to the front of the oscilloscope for maximum input ratings.
Use only within operational environment listed. Do not use in wet or explosive atmospheres.
Use indoors only.
Keep product surfaces clean and dry. See Cleaning in the Maintenance section.
Do not block the cooling vents. Leave a minimum six-inch (15 cm) gap between the instrument and the
nearest object. Keep the underside clear of papers and other objects.
Do not remove the covers or inside parts. Refer all maintenance to qualified service personnel.
Do not operate with suspected failures. Do not use the product if any part is damaged. Obviously incorrect
measurement behaviors (such as failure to calibrate) might indicate impairment due to hazardous live
electrical quantities. Cease operation immediately and sequester the instrument from inadvertent use.
