General Safety Considerations
The following safety notes apply specifically to signal generators. These notes
also appear in other chapters of this service guide as required.
These servicing instructions are for use by qualified personal only.
To avoid electrical shock, do not perform any servicing unless you
are qualified to do so.
The opening of covers or removal of parts is likely to expose
dangerous voltages. Disconnect the product from all voltage
sources before starting to open.
The detachable power cord is the instrument disconnecting device.
It disconnects the main circuits from the main supply before other
parts of the instrument. The front panel switch is only a standby
switch and is not a LINE switch (disconnecting device).
The power cord is connected to internal capacitors that may remain
live for 5 seconds after disconnecting the plug from its power
supply.
This is a Safety Class 1 Product (provided with a protective earthing
ground incorporated in the power cord). The mains plug shall only
be inserted in a socket outlet provided with a protective earth
contact. Any interruption of the protective conductor inside or
outside of the product is likely to make the product dangerous.
Intentional interruption is prohibited.
Warning denotes a hazard. It calls attention to a procedure which, if
not correctly performed or adhered to, could result in injury or loss
of life. Do not proceed beyond a warning note until the indicated
conditions are fully understood and met.
Replace battery only with the same or equivalent type
recommended. Discard used batteries according to manufacturer’s
instructions.
If this product is not used as specified, the protection provided by
the equipment could be impaired. This product must be used in a
