4.1 Power-on the Instrument 
A successful selftest indicates that the purchased power product meets delivery 
standards and is available for normal usage. 
Before operation, please confirm that you have fully understood the safety 
instructions. 
Precautions 
To prevent electric shock and damage to the instrument, please observe the 
following precautions. 
 
 
z  Before connecting power cord, be sure to confirm that the power 
voltage matches with the supply voltage. 
z  Before connecting power cord, be sure to switch off the instrument. 
Verify that there is no dangerous voltage on the terminals before 
touching them. 
z  To avoid fire or electric shock, make sure to use the power cord 
supplied by ITECH. 
z  Be sure to connect the main power socket to the power outlet with 
protective grounding. Do not use terminal board without protective 
grounding. 
z  Do not use an extended power cord without protective grounding, 
otherwise the protection function will fail. 
z  Ensure that the input electrodes are either insulated or covered using 
the safety covers provided, so that no accidental contact with lethal 
voltages can occur. 
z  If you notice strange sounds, unusual odors, fire, or smoke around or 
from inside the instrument, flip the POWER switch to the (O) side to 
turn the instrument off, or remove the power cord plug from the outlet. 
The detachable power cord may be used as an emergency 
disconnecting device. Removing the power cord will disconnect AC 
input power to the unit. 
 
 
 
Safety agency requirements dictate that there must be a way to 
physically disconnect the AC mains cable from the unit. A disconnect 
device, either a switch or circuit breaker must be provided in the final 
installation. The disconnect device must be close to the equipment, be 
easily accessible, and be marked as the disconnect device for this 
equipment.
