Precautions
In order to ensure safe operation and to obtain maximum performance from the
unit, observe the cautions listed below.
WARNING
Use the Correct Power Cord and Plug
To prevent the possibility of electric shock or fire, be sure to use the power
cord for the instrument. The main power plug must be plugged into an
outlet with a protective earth terminal. Do not invalidate this protection by
using an extension cord without protective earth grounding. Further, do not
use this power cord with other instruments.
Connect the Protective Ground Terminal
Be sure to connect the protective earth to prevent electric shock before
turning ON the power. The power cord that you can use for the instrument
is a three-prong cord. Connect the power cord to a properly grounded
three-prong outlet.
CAUTION
• Do not subject the unit to vibrations or shocks during transport or
handling. Be especially careful to avoid dropping the unit.
• Do not store the unit where it will be exposed to direct sunlight, high
temperature, high humidity, or condensation. If exposed to such
conditions, the unit may be damaged, the insulation may deteriorate,
and the unit may no longer satisfy its specifications.
• Before using the unit, inspect it and check the operation to make
sure that the unit was not damaged due to poor storage or transport
conditions. If damage is found, contact your dealer or YOKOGAWA
representative.
• Nothing should be placed on top of the power cord, and it should be kept
away from any heat sources. When removing the plug from the power
outlet, do not pull on the cord. Pull from the plug. If the power cord is
damaged or if you are using the instrument in a location where the power
supply specifications are different, purchase a power cord that matches
the specifications of the region that the instrument will be used in.
• This unit is not constructed to be waterproof or dustproof, so do not use
it in a very dusty environment or in one where it will get wet.
• Gently wipe dirt from the surface of the unit with a soft cloth moistened
with a small amount of water or mild detergent. Do not try to clean
the unit using cleaners containing organic solvents such as benzine,
alcohol, acetone, ether, ketones, thinners, or gasoline. They may cause
discoloration or damage.
