viewed for familiarization with safety markings and
instructions before operation.
This product is a Safety Class I instrument (provided
with a protective earth terminal).
BEFORE APPLYING
POWER
Verify that the product is set to match the available
line voltage and the correct fuse is installed.
SAFETY EARTH GROUND
An uninterruptible safety earth ground must be pro-
vided from the main power source to the product input
wiring terminals, power cord, or supplied power cord
set.
SAFETY SYMBOLS
Instruction manual symbol: the product will
A
be marked with t h i s symbol when i t
is necessary for the user to refer to the instruction
manual (refer to Table of Contents).

The WARNING sign denotes a
hazard. I t calls attention to a
procedure, practice, or the like, which, if not correctly
performed or adhered to, could result in personal in-
jury. Do not proceed beyond a WARNING sign until
the indicated conditions are fully understood and met.
The CAUTION sign denotes a haz-

I
WARNING
A n y interruption of the protective (ground-
ing) conductor (inside or outside the instru-
ment) or disconnecting the protective earth
terminal will cause a potential shock hazard
that could result
in personal injury. (Ground-
ing one conductor of a two conductor outlet
is not sufficient protection).
Whenever it
is
likely that the protection has
been impaired, the instrument must be made
inoperative and be secured against any unin-
tended operation.
I f this instrument
is
to be energized via a n
autotransformer (for voltage reduction) make
sure the common terminal is connected to the
earth terminal of the power source.
Servicing instructions are for use by service-
trained personnel only. To avoid dangerous
electric shock, do not perform any servicing
unless qualified to do so.
Adjustments described in the manual are per-
formed with power supplied to the instrument
while protective covers are removed. Energy
available at many points may, if contacted, re-
sult in personal injury.
Capacitors inside the instrument may still be
charged even if the instrument has been dis-
connected from its source of supply.
For continued protection against fire hazard,
replace the line fuse(s) only with
250V
fuse(s)
of the same current rating and type (for exam-
ple, normal blow, time delay, etc.). Do not use
repaired
f u s e s o r
s h o r t
c i r c u i t e d
fuseholders.
