9.Appendix

2. Disconnect power before cleaning your Oscilloscope. Clean the instrument

with a wet soft cloth not dripping water. It is recommended to scrub with
soft detergent or fresh water. To avoid damage to the instrument or probe,
do not use any corrosive chemical cleaning agent.

Warning:

Before power on again for operation, it is required to confirm

that the instrument has already been dried completely,
avoiding any electrical short circuit or bodily injury resulting
form the moisture.
