Safety Summary
When you notice any of the unusual conditions listed below, immediately
terminate operation and disconnect the power cable.
Contact your local Agilent Technologies sales representative or
authorized service company for repair of the instrument. If you continue
to operate without repairing the instrument, there is a potential fire or
shock hazard for the operator.
n Instrument operates abnormally.
n Instrument emits abnormal noise, smell, smoke or a spark-like light
during the operation.
n Instrument generates high temperature or electrical shock during
operation.
n Power cable, plug, or receptacle on instrument is damaged.
n Foreign substance or liquid has fallen into the instrument.
Caution
Do not apply DC voltage or current to the UNKNOWN terminals. Do
not apply External DC bias voltage more than +2.5V. Doing so will
damage the 4263B. Before you measure a capacitor, be sure the capacitor
is fully discharged.

requirements.
Note 4263B complies with INSTALLATION CATEGORY II and POLLUTION DEGREE 2
in IEC1010-1. 4263B is INDOOR USE product.
Ground The Instrument
To avoid electric shock hazard, the instrument chassis and cabinet must be connected to a
safety earth ground by the supplied power cable with earth blade.
DO NOT Operate In An Explosive Atmosphere
Do not operate the instrument in the presence of
ammable gasses or fumes. Operation of any
electrical instrument in such an environment constitutes a de nite safety hazard.
Keep Away From Live Circuits
Operating personnel must not remove instrument covers. Component replacement and internal
adjustments must be made by quali ed maintenance personnel. Do not replace components
with the power cable connected. Under certain conditions, dangerous voltages may exist even
with the power cable removed. To avoid injuries, always disconnect power and discharge
circuits before touching them.
DO NOT Service Or Adjust Alone
Do not attempt internal service or adjustment unless another person, capable of rendering rst
aid and resuscitation, is present.
DO NOT Substitute Parts Or Modify Instrument
Because of the danger of introducing additional hazards, do not install substitute parts or
perform unauthorized modi cations to the instrument. Return the instrument to a Agilent
Technologies Sales and Service Oce for service and repair to ensure that safety features are
maintained.
