Use only insulated voltage probes, test leads, and adapters supplied with the product, or indicated by Tektronix to be suitable for the
product.
Connect the probe output to the measurement instrument before connecting the probe to the circuit under test. Connect the probe
reference lead to the circuit under test before connecting the probe input. Disconnect the probe input and the probe reference lead from
the circuit under test before disconnecting the probe from the measurement instrument.
De-energize the circuit under test before connecting or disconnecting the current probe.
Observe all terminal ratings
T
o avoid fire or shock hazard, observe all rating and markings on the product. Consult the product manual for further ratings information
before making connections to the product.
Do not exceed the Measurement Category (CAT) rating and voltage or current rating of the lowest rated individual component of a product,
probe, or accessory. Use caution when using 1:1 test leads because the probe tip voltage is directly transmitted to the product.
Do not apply a potential to any terminal, including the common terminal, that exceeds the maximum rating of that terminal.
Do not float the common terminal above the rated voltage for that terminal.
The measurement terminals on this product are not rated for connection to Category III or IV circuits.
Do not connect a current probe to any wire that carries voltages above the current probe voltage rating.
Do not operate without covers
Do not operate this product with covers or panels removed, or with the case open. Hazardous voltage exposure is possible.
Avoid exposed circuitry
Do not touch exposed connections and components when power is present.
Do not operate with suspected failures
If you suspect that there is damage to this product, have it inspected by qualified service personnel.
Disable the product if it is damaged. Do not use the product if it is damaged or operates incorrectly. If in doubt about safety of the product,
turn it off and disconnect the power cord. Clearly mark the product to prevent its further operation.
Before use, inspect voltage probes, test leads, and accessories for mechanical damage and replace when damaged. Do not use probes or
test leads if they are damaged, if there is exposed metal, or if a wear indicator shows.
Examine the exterior of the product before you use it. Look for cracks or missing pieces.
Use only specified replacement parts.
Replace batteries properly
Replace batteries only with the specified type and rating.
Recharge batteries for the recommended charge cycle only.
Wear eye protection
Wear eye protection if exposure to high-intensity rays or laser radiation exists.
Do not operate in wet/damp conditions
Be aware that condensation may occur if a unit is moved from a cold to a warm environment.
