Before initial use, or after transport, or after storage in humid or semi-hu-
mid environments, or anytime the instrument has not been energized for
more than 10 days, the instrument needs to be energized for a "dry-out"
period of 2 hours before it can be assumed to meet all of the safety re-
quirements of the IEC 1010-1. If the product is wet or has been in a wet
environment, take necessary measures to remove moisture prior to apply-
ing power such as storage in a low humidity temperature chamber operat-
ing at 50 degree centigrade for 4 hours or more.
•
DO NOT operate high temperature baths (500°C) near flammable materi-
als. Extreme temperatures could ignite the flammable material.
•
Overhead clearance is required. Do not place the instrument under a cabi-
net or other structure. Always leave enough clearance to allow for safe
and easy insertion and removal of probes.
•
The instrument is intended for indoor use only.

Extremely cold temperatures may be present in this equipment. Freezer
burns and frostbite may result if personnel fail to observe safety precau-
tions.
•
High temperatures may be present in this equipment. Fires and severe
burns may result if personnel fail to observe safety precautions.
ELECTRICAL HAZARD
•
These guidelines must be followed to ensure that the safety mechanisms
in this instrument will operate properly. This instrument must be plugged
into a 115 VAC, 60Hz (230 VAC, 50Hz optional), AC only electric outlet.
The power cord of the instrument is equipped with a three-pronged
grounding plug for your protection against electrical shock hazards. It
must be plugged directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle.
The receptacle must be installed in accordance with local codes and ordi-
nances. Consult a qualified electrician. DO NOT use an extension cord or
adapter plug.

DO use a ground fault interrupt device. This unit contains a liquid. A
ground fault device is advised in case liquid is present in the electrical
system and could cause an electrical shock.
•
Always replace the power cord with an approved cord of the correct rat-
ing and type. If you have questions, contact Kaye Customer Service.
