Failure to comply with the precautions below could lead to injury or death or damage to the instrument.
WARNING
Use the Instrument Only for Its Intended Purpose
This optical measuring instrument is designed to measure the optical characteristics of light sources and evaluate their
performance. Do not use this instrument for anything other than as an optical measuring instrument.
Check the Physical Appearance
Do not use the instrument if there is a problem with its physical appearance.
Battery
• This instrument contains a battery (lithium-ion cell). The battery cannot be removed. For information on replacing the
battery, contact your nearest YOKOGAWA dealer.
• Use only the supplied USB cable to charge the instrument.
• With the instrument turned off, when the battery pack is charged using the USB-AC adapter that YOKOGAWA
recommends , if the battery pack is still charging after 8 hours, stop charging it immediately.
• Do not charge the instrument under direct sunlight (such as on the car dashboard or by a window), inside a vehicle
under the blazing sun, near a stove or other heat source, or other hot locations.
• Your clothing may be damaged or you may be injured if you come in contact with the electrolyte in the battery due to
fluid leakage or the battery exploding. Because the electrolyte may cause loss of eyesight, if it comes in contact with
your eyes, immediately wash the affected area with clean water, and consult a doctor as soon as possible.
• Do not throw the instrument into fire or heat it. Such actions are dangerous as they may cause the battery to explode
or the electrolyte to be sprayed about.
• For information on transporting lithium-ion batteries by air, see the requirement for each packing instruction (lithium
batterying instruction Section II) in the latest IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations.
Laser Beam
Do not look directly or indirectly into the laser beam or at a specular reflection of the beam without protective equipment.
Do not aim the laser beam at the eye. Doing so may cause blindness or damage to your eyes. Attach the cover to the
optical connector when it is not in use. Be sure to turn off this instrument before you clean it.
