Electric Shock Due to Contact with Inside of Instrument

• The xenon lamp is supplied with high voltage of 30 kV, which could cause an electric shock
to result in serious or fatal injury. Before removing the light source cover for replacement
of the light source lamp, be sure to turn off the power switch and unplug the power cord
before proceeding.
• When replacing the fuse with a new one, be careful not to receive an electric shock. To
prevent this, be sure turn off the power switch and unplug the power cord before
proceeding to fuse replacement.

Electric Shock Due to Improper Grounding

To prevent an electric shock hazard, a properly grounded power supply outlet must be provided for
the instrument.
Be sure to use the grounded three prong power cable, which is supplied as a standard accessory
for the instrument. The use of a different type of power cable may result in an electric shock
hazard. Connect the three prong power cable to a grounded three prong power outlet.

Injury Due to Xenon Lamp Explosion

Replace the xenon lamp with a new one before its cumulative turn-on time exceeds the guaranteed
useful lifetime.
With the lapse of the guaranteed useful lifetime, the bulb wall darkens due to evaporation of
electrode material and adhesion of scattered substances, resulting in a decrease in heat dissipation.
This may increase temperature (pressure) inside the bulb excessively to cause
explosion.

Lamp Replacement

Replace the xenon lamp with a new one before its cumulative turn-on time exceeds the guaranteed
useful lifetime.
