Additional Information for Test and Measurement Equipment

To comply with EMC regulations, shielded cables should be used on all appropriate connections. Otherwise, the user has to ensure that, under operating conditions, the Radio Interference Limits are still met at the border of the user's premises.

Warnings

The following general safety precautions must be observed during all phases of operation, service, and repair of this product. Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere in this manual violates safety standards of design, manufacture, and intended use of the product. Agilent Technologies assumes no liability for the customer’s failure to comply with these requirements.

Ground the Equipment: For safety, Class 1 equipment (equipment having a protective earth terminal), an uninterruptible safety ground must be provided from the mains power source to the product input wiring terminals or supplied power cable. Before operating the equipment, guard against electric shock in case of fault by always using the provided 3-conductor power cord to connect the equipment to a grounded power outlet.

DO NOT use in hazardous environments: Do not operate the product in an explosive atmosphere or in the presence of flammable gases or fumes. This product is designed for indoor use only.

DO NOT use repaired fuses or short-circuited fuse holders: For continued protection against fire, replace line fuses only with fuses of the same voltage and current rating and type.

Keep away from live circuits: Operating personnel must not remove equipment covers or shields. Procedures involving the removal of covers and shields are for use by service- trained personnel only. Under certain conditions, dangerous voltages may exist even with the equipment switched off. To avoid dangerous electrical shock, DO NOT perform procedures involving cover or shield removal unless you are qualified to do so.

DO NOT operate damaged equipment: Whenever it is possible that the safety protection features built into this product have been impaired, either through physical damage, excessive moisture, or any other reason, REMOVE POWER and do not use the product until safe operation can be verified by service-trained personnel. If necessary, return the product to an Agilent Technologies Sales and Service Office for service and repair to ensure the safety features are maintained.

DO NOT substitute parts or modify equipment: Because of the danger of introducing additional hazards, do not install substitute parts or perform any unauthorized modification to the product. Return the product to an Agilent Technologies Sales and Service Office for service and repair to ensure features are maintained.

DO NOT clean with fluids: Doing so may make the equipment unsafe for use. Power down the equipment and disconnect the power cord before cleaning. To clean, use a soft dry cloth.
