General Safety
Considerations
Warning Before this instruct is switched on, make sure it has been
properly grounded through the protective conductor of the ac
power cable to a socket outlet provided with protective earth
contact.
Any interruption of the protective (grounding) conductor, inside
or outside the instrument, or disconnection of the protective
earth terminal can result in personal injury.
Warning There are many points in the instrument which can, if contacted,
cause personal injury. Be extremely careful.
Any adjustments or service procedures that require operation
of the instrument with protective covers removed should be
performed only by trained service personnel.
Caution Before this instruct is switched on, make sure its primary power
circuitry has been adapted to the voltage of the ac power source.
Failure to set the ac power input to the correct voltage could cause
damage to the instrument when the ac power cable is plugged in.
