Important Safety Information 

 

 

ii

WARNING 

 

 

¤

 

Unplug the power cable when the instrument is not in use. 

 

…… Failure to observe the above may result in electric shock, fire or damage to the internal 

circuitry.  

 

¤

 

When using the AC adapter, ensure there is no dust on the power plug. The AC outlet used 
must be within the specified power requirement of 100 ~ 240 V. 

 

…… Failure to observe the above may result in fire. 

 

¤

 

When using the AC adapter, make sure to use the one provided with this instrument. 

 

…… Other commercially available adapters may have different polarity and specifications, which 

could result in short circuit, fire or damage to the instrument. 

 

 

CAUTION 

 

 

 

¤

 

Do not perform measurements in an environment exceeding the 
specified temperature and RH level of the instrument. Also the 
instrument should not be exposed to direct sunlight for prolonged 
periods.

 

 

…… The instrument may not function properly outside the specified 

environment. (5 ~ 40 

˚

C, 95 %RH or lower, non condensing) 

 

 

 

 

 

 

¤

 

Do not wipe the instrument with volatile solvents. 

 

…… The body may be deformed or deteriorated. Use soft dry cloth to remove stains. If stains 

persist, soak the cloth in a neutral detergent or water and wipe the instrument with the 
cloth. Never use volatile solvents such a thinner or benzene. 

 

 

 

 

¤

 

Do not subject the instrument to strong shock. Do not place heavy 
objects on the instrument. 

 

…… Failure to observe the above may cause damage to the instrument.

 

 

 

 

¤

 

Do not touch the instrument when it is or you are electrically charged.   

 

…… Failure to observe the above may affect measurement value and cause damage to the 

instrument circuitry. 

 

 

 

¤

 

After using the instrument in the highly concentrated environment (100 
CPM), make sure to perform a cleaning every time. 

 

…… Leaving the instrument without cleaning after a measurement, inside 

the optical system gets dirty and ZERO point may not be able to be 
adjusted.
