to the instrument and any product connected to it. To avoid potential hazards, please use
the instrument as specified.
Only the qualified technician can service the instrument.
Avoid fire or personal Injure.
Use proper power line.
Use only the special power line which approved by local state.
Ground the Instrument.
The instrument is grounded through the protective terra conductor of the power line. To
avoid electric shock, the ground conductor must be connected to the earth. Make sure the
instrument is grounded correctly before connecting its input or output terminals.
Connect the signal wire correctly.
