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.

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.

Operating Environment

Temperature: 5 to 40 °C.

Humidity: Maximum relative humidity 80 % for temperatures up to 31 °C
decreasing linearly to 50 % relative humidity at 40 °C (or at the upper
operational temperature limit).

Altitude: Up to 10,000 ft (3,048 m) at or below 25 °C.

Cooling

The instrument relies on forced air cooling with internal fans and vents.
Take care to avoid restricting the airflow to any part of the oscilloscope.
Around the sides and rear, leave a minimum of 15 cm (6 inches) between
the instrument and the nearest object. At the bottom, the oscilloscope feet
(up or down) provide adequate clearance.
