Safety Summary
The following general safety precautions must be observed during all phases of operation
of this instrument. Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific warnings or
operating instructions in the product manuals violates safety standards of design,
manufacture, and intended use of the instrument. Keysight Technologies assumes no
liability for the customer's failure to comply with these requirements. Product manuals
are provided with your instrument on CD-ROM and/or in printed form. Printed manuals
are an option for many products. Manuals may also be available on the Web. Go to
www.keysight.com and type in your product number in the Search field at the top of the
page.
General Do not use this product in any manner not specified by the manufacturer. The protective
features of this product may be impaired if it is used in a manner not specified in the
operation instructions.
Before Applying Power Verify that all safety precautions are taken. Make all connections to the unit before
applying power. Note the instrument's external markings described in “Safety Symbols”.
Ground the Instrument If your product is provided with a grounding type power plug, the instrument chassis and
cover must be connected to an electrical ground to minimize shock hazard. The ground
pin must be firmly connected to an electrical ground (safety ground) terminal at the
power outlet. Any interruption of the protective (grounding) conductor or disconnection
of the protective earth terminal will cause a potential shock hazard that could result in
personal injury.
Fuses See the user's guide or operator's manual for information about line-fuse replacement.
Some instruments contain an internal fuse, which is not user accessible.
Do Not Operate in an
Explosive Atmosphere
Do not operate the instrument in the presence of flammable gases or fumes.
Do Not Remove the
Instrument Cover
Only qualified, service-trained personnel who are aware of the hazards involved should
remove instrument covers. Always disconnect the power cable and any external circuits
before removing the instrument cover.
Cleaning Clean the outside of the instrument with a soft, lint-free, slightly dampened cloth. Do not
use detergent or chemical solvents.
Do Not Modify the
Instrument
Do not install substitute parts or perform any unauthorized modification to the product.
Return the product to an Keysight Sales and Service Office for service and repair to
ensure that safety features are maintained.
In Case of Damage Instruments that appear damaged or defective should be made inoperative and secured
against unintended operation until they can be repaired by qualified service personnel.
