Safety
Notices
This apparatus has been
designed and tested in accor-
dance with IEC Publication
1010, Safety Requirements for
Measuring Apparatus, and has
been supplied in a safe condi-
tion. This is a Safety Class I
instrument (provided with termi-
nal for protective earthing).
Before applying power, verify
that the correct safety precau-
tions are taken (see the follow-
ing warnings). In addition, note
the external markings on the
instrument that are described
under "Safety Symbols."
Warnings
• Before turning on the instru-
ment, you must connect the pro-
tective 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 con-
ductor (grounding). Grounding
one conductor of a two-conduc-
tor outlet is not sufficient pro-
tection.
• 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.
• If you energize this instrument
by an auto transformer (for volt-
age reduction or mains isola-
tion), the common terminal must
be connected to the earth termi-
nal of the power source.

• Whenever it is likely that the
ground protection is impaired,
you must make the instrument
inoperative and secure it
against any unintended opera-
tion.
• Service instructions are for
trained service personnel. To
avoid dangerous electric shock,
do not perform any service
unless qualified to do so. Do
not attempt internal service or
adjustment unless another per-
son, capable of rendering first
aid and resuscitation, is
present.
• Do not install substitute parts
or perform any unauthorized
modification to the instrument.
• Capacitors inside the instru-
ment may retain a charge even
if the instrument is discon-
nected from its source of sup-
ply.
• Do not operate the instrument
in the presence of flammable
gasses or fumes. Operation of
any electrical instrument in
such an environment consti-
tutes a definite safety hazard.
• Do not use the instrument in a
manner not specified by the
manufacturer.
