Before Starting Generation or Measurement
Usage Precautions
Safety Precautions
• Before using this instrument, thoroughly read the "Safety Precautions" on pages 4 and
5.
• Do not remove the cover from the instrument.
Some parts of the instrument use high voltage, which is extremely dangerous. When
the instrument needs an internal inspection or calibration, contact your nearest
representative.
• In case of abnormality
If you notice smoke or the instrument seems to be acting abnormally, for example, it
generates smoke or emits a strange odor, immediately turn the instrument off and, if
an AC power supply kit is in use, disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet. Also
turn off the object connected to the input terminal. If the instrument seems to be
abnormal, contact your nearest reperesentative.
• AC adapter and power cord
Use the dedicated AC adapter. Nothing should be placed on the AC adapter or power
cord; also, it should be kept away from any heat sources. When unplugging the power
cord from the AC outlet, never pull the cord itself. Always hold the plug and pull it. If
the power cord is damaged, contact your dealer. Refer to page 3 for the part number
to use when placing an order.
General Precautions when Handling the Instrument
• When moving the instrument
Turn off the power to the object connected to the instrument. Turn off the power to
this instrument and, if an AC power supply kit is in use, disconnect the power cord
from the AC outlet. When carrying the instrument, always use the carrying case.
• Keep input terminals away from electrically charged articles as they may damage the
internal circuitry.
• Do not allow volatile chemicals to come into contact with the case or operation panel.
Also do not leave them in contact with any rubber or vinyl products for prolonged
periods. The operation panel is made of thermoplastic resin, so take care to avoid
contact with any heated articles such as a soldering iron.
• Before cleaning the case and operation panel, make sure that the power cord is
disconnected from the AC outlet if the AC power supply kit is used. Dampen a clean
soft cloth with water and wipe the surface of the case and panel. Water that gets inside
the instrument may result in breakdown.
• If the AC power supply kit will not be used over a long period, unplug the power cord
from the outlet.
• For handling dry cells, refer to the section, "Installing Dry Cells," on page 16.
• Do not use the instrument with the cover for the battery housing left open.
• Gently wipe the surface with a soft and dry cloth. Do not use chemicals such as
benzene or thinner, because these may cause discoloration and deformation.
• Do not stack the instrument.
