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 fuse holders. To do so could cause a shock or fire
hazard.
Capacitors inside the instrument may retain a charge even if the
instrument is disconnected from its source of supply.
