Operating Precautions
9
Handling the Cords and Leads
To avoid electrical shock, be careful to avoid shorting live lines with the
test leads.
•
Avoid stepping on or pinching cables, which could damage the cable insula-
tion.
•
To avoid breaking cables or lead wires, do not bend or pull them.
•
To avoid damaging the power cord, grasp the plug, not the cord, when
unplugging it from the power outlet.
•
To avoid damaging the cable, grasp the connector, not the cable, when
unplugging the cable.
•
The ends of the pin type lead are sharp. Be careful to avoid injury.
•
Keep the cables well away from heat sources, as bare conductors could be
exposed if the insulation melts.
•
Temperature sensors are precision devices. Be aware that excessive volt-
age pulses or static discharges can destroy the film.
•
Avoid subjecting the temperature sensor tip to physical shock, and avoid
sharp bends in the leads. These may damage the probe or break a wire.
•
Use only the specified cords and leads. Using a non-specified cord or lead
may result in incorrect measurements due to poor connection or other rea-
sons.
•
If the part of the temperature sensor that connects to the instrument
becomes dirty, wipe it clean. The presence of dirt may affect temperature
measured values by increasing the contact resistance.
•
Exercise care so that the temperature sensor connector does not become
disconnected. (If the sensor is disconnected, it will not be possible to per-
form temperature correction or temperature conversion.)
CD-R disc precautions
•
Exercise care to keep the recorded side of discs free of dirt and scratches.
When writing text on a disc’s label, use a pen or marker with a soft tip.
•
Keep discs inside a protective case and do not expose to direct sunlight,
high temperature, or high humidity.
•
Hioki is not liable for any issues your computer system experiences in the
course of using this disc.
