struments in residential areas could
cause unacceptable interferences to
radio and TV equipment. Any varia-
tion introduced by the user to the
supplied equipment may degrade the
instrument’s EMC performance. To
avoid electrical shock, do not use
these instruments when voltages at
the measurement surface exceed 24
Vac or 60 Vdc. To avoid damages
or burns, do not perform any mea-
surement in microwave ovens.
