General Safety Information

This is a Safety Class I instrument (provided with a protective earthing

ground, incorporated in the power cord). The mains plug shall only be

inserted in a socket outlet provided with a protective earth contact. Any

interruption of the protective conductor inside or outside of the instrument

is likely to make the instrument dangerous. Intentional interruption is

WARNING

• DO NOT operate the product in an explosive atmosphere or in the

presence of flammable gasses or fumes.

• DO NOT use repaired fuses or short-circuited fuseholders: For

continued protection against fire, replace the line fuse(s) only with

fuse(s) of the same voltage and current rating and type.

• DO NOT perform procedures involving cover or shield removal

unless you are qualified to do so: Operating personnel must not

remove equipment covers or shields. Procedures involving the

removal of covers and shields are for use by service-trained

personnel only.

• DO NOT service or adjust alone: Under certain conditions, dangerous

voltages may exist even with the equipment switched off. To avoid

dangerous electrical shock, service personnel must not attempt

internal service or adjustment unless another person, capable of

rendering first aid and resuscitation, is present.

• DO NOT operate damaged equipment: Whenever it is possible that

the safety protection features built into this product have been

impaired, either through physical damage, excessive moisture, or

any other reason, REMOVE POWER and do not use the product until

safe operation can be verified by service-trained personnel. If

necessary, return the product to a Agilent Technologies Sales and

Service Office for service and repair to ensure the safety features are

maintained.

• DO NOT substitute parts or modify equipment: Because of the danger

of introducing additional hazards, do not install substitute parts or

perform any unauthorized modification to the product. Return the

product to a Agilent Technologies Sales and Service Office for

service and repair to ensure the safety features are maintained.
