Ground the Instrument
To minimize shock hazard, the instrument chassis and cabinet must be
connected to an electrical safety ground. This instrument is grounded
through the ground conductor of the supplied, three-conductor
AC
line
power cable. The power cable must be plugged into an approved three-
conductor electrical outlet. The power jack and mating plug of the
power cable meet IEC safety standards.
Do not alter or defeat the ground connection. Without the safety
ground connection, all accessible conductive parts (including control
knobs) may provide an electric shock. Failure to use a properly-
grounded approved outlet and the recommended three-conductor
AC
line power cable may result in injury or death.
Unless otherwise stated, a ground connection on the instrument's front
or rear panel is for a reference of potential only and is not to be used as
a safety ground.
Do not operate in an explosive or flammable atmosphere
Do not operate the instrument in the presence of flammable gases or
vapors, fumes, or finely-divided particulates.
The instrument is designed to be used in office-type indoor
environments. Do not operate the instrument
