2.1 Handling Precautions
Safety Precautions
If you are using this instrument for the first time, make sure to read “Safety Precautions” on pages vii to x.
Do Not Remove the Case
Do not remove the case from the instrument. Some sections inside the instrument have high
voltages that are extremely dangerous. For internal inspection and adjustment, contact your nearest
YOKOGAWA dealer.
Unplug If Abnormal Behavior Occurs
If you notice smoke or unusual odors coming from the instrument, immediately turn off the power and
unplug the power cord. Then, contact your nearest YOKOGAWA dealer.
Do Not Damage the Power Cord
Nothing should be placed on top of the power cord. The power cord should also be kept away from
any heat sources. When unplugging the power cord from the outlet, never pull by the cord itself. Be
sure to hold and pull by the plug. If the power cord is damaged or if you are using the instrument in a
location where the power supply specifications are different, purchase a power cord that matches the
specifications of the region that the instrument will be used in.
Operating Environment and Conditions
This instrument complies with the EMC standard under specific operating environment and operating
conditions. If the installation, wiring, and so on are not appropriate, the compliance conditions of the
EMC standard may not be met. In such cases, the user will be required to take appropriate measures.
General Handling Precautions
Do Not Place Objects on Top of the Instrument
Never place objects such as other instruments or objects that contain water on top of the instrument.
Doing so may damage the instrument.
Do Not Damage the LCD
Because the LCD is very vulnerable and can be easily scratched, do not allow any sharp objects near it.
