Checking the Shipment
After you receive the E4981A, carry out checks during unpacking according to 
the following procedure.
Step 1. Check that the packing box or shock-absorbing material used to package the 
Capacitance meter has not been damaged.
Step 2. Check the packaged items supplied with the Capacitance meter for any 
damage or defects.
Step 3. By referring to the packing list, check that all packaged items supplied with the 
Capacitance meter have been provided as per the specified options.
Step 4. After checking, if one of the following applies, contact your nearest Keysight 
Technologies sales and service office.
• The packing box or shock-absorbing material used to package the 
Capacitance meter has been damaged or the shock-absorbing material 
displays traces of where extreme pressure has been applied.
• A packaged item supplied with the Capacitance meter has mechanical 
damage or defects.
• A packaged item supplied with the Capacitance meter is missing.
• A fault has been detected in the subsequent operation check of the 
Capacitance meter. 
If an abnormality is detected in Step 1, contact the company that transported 
the Capacitance meter as well as your nearest Keysight Technologies sales and 
service office. For inspection by the transport company, save the packing box, 
shock-absorbing material, and packaged items as you received them.
If the external face of the Capacitance meter (such as the cover, front/rear 
panel, LCD screen, power switch, and port connectors) appears to have 
been damaged during transport, do not turn on the power switch. 
Otherwise, you may get an electrical shock.
If the packing box or shock-absorbing material has been damaged, leave 
the packing box and shock-absorbing material as is until other inspection 
items are checked as follows.
