Safety Notices

This apparatus has been designed and tested in accordance
with IEC Publication 1010, Safety Requirements for
Measuring Apparatus, and has been supplied in a safe
condition. This is a Safety Class I instrument (provided with
terminal for protective earthing). Before applying power,
verify that the correct safety precautions are taken (see the
following warnings). In addition, note the external markings
on the instrument that are described under "Safety
Symbols."

Warnings

Before turning on the instrument, you must connect the
protective earth terminal of the instrument to the protective
conductor of the (mains) power cord. The mains plug shall
only be inserted in a socket outlet provided with a
protective earth contact. You must not negate the protective
action by using an extension cord (power cable) without a
protective conductor (grounding). Grounding one conductor
of a two- conductor outlet is not sufficient protection.
Only fuses with the required rated current, voltage, and
specified type (normal blow, time delay, etc.) should be used.
Do not use repaired fuses or short- circuited fuseholders. To
do so could cause a shock or fire hazard.
