Getting Started
Proper Use and Cleaning
Proper Use and Cleaning
The signal generator cover protects against physical contact with internal assemblies that contain hazardous voltages, but
does not protect internal assemblies against contact with liquids. To avoid damage and personal injury, ensure that
liquids are positioned away from the signal generator.
WARNING Personal injury may result if the signal generator is not used as specified. Unspecified use impairs
the protection provided by the equipment. The signal generator must be used with all means for
protection intact.
Cleaning Suggestions
WARNING Electrical shock may result if the signal generator is not disconnected from the mains supply before
cleaning. Do not attempt to clean internally.
Cleaning connectors with alcohol shall only be done with the instruments power cord removed, and
in a well-ventilated room. Allow all residual alcohol moisture to evaporate, and the fumes to
dissipate prior to energizing the instrument.
To ensure good connections, regularly clean the instrument’s front and rear panel connectors with alcohol.
To prevent dust build-up that could potentially obstruct ventilation, periodically clean the instrument’s cover. Use a dry
cloth or a cloth slightly dampened with water to clean the external case parts.
