WARNING
Servicing instructions are for use by service-trained personnel. To avoid dangerous electrical shock, do not perform any servicing
unless you are qualified to do so. Some procedures described in this manual are performed with power supplied to the instrument
while its protective covers are removed. If contacted, the energy available at many points may result in personal injury.
BEFORE APPLYING POWER.
Verify that the product is set to match the available line voltage, the correct line fuse is installed, and all safety precautions (see
following warnings) are taken. In addition, note the instrument's external markings described under "Safety Symbols"
GROUND THE INSTRUMENT.
Before switching on the instrument, the protective earth terminal of the instrument must be connected to the protective conductor
of the (mains) power cord. The mains plug shall be inserted only in an outlet socket that is provided with a protective earth
contact. This protective action must not be negated by the use of an extension cord (power cable) that is without a protective
conductor (grounding). Any interruption of the protective (grounding) conductor or disconnection of the protective earth
terminal will cause a potential shock hazard that could result in personal injury.
FUSES
Only fuses with the required rated current, voltage, and specified type (normal blow, time delay, etc.) should be used. Do not use
repaired fuses or short-circuited fuseholders. To do so could cause a shock or fire hazard.
KEEP AWAY FROM LIVE CIRCUITS.
Operating personnel must not remove instrument covers. Component replacement and internal adjustments must be made by
qualified service personnel. Do not replace components with power cable connected. Under certain conditions, dangerous
voltages may exist even with the power cable removed. To avoid injuries, always disconnect power, discharge circuits and
remove external voltage sources before touching components.
DO NOT SERVICE OR ADJUST ALONE.
Do not attempt internal service or adjustment unless another person, capable of rendering first aid and resuscitation, is present.
Any adjustment, maintenance, and repair of this instrument while it is opened and under voltage should be avoided as much as
possible. When this is unavoidable, such adjustment, maintenance, and repair should be carried out only by a skilled person who
is aware of the hazard involved.
DO NOT SUBSTITUTE PARTS OR MODIFY INSTRUMENT.
Because of the danger of introducing additional hazards, do not install substitute parts or perform any unauthorized modification
to the instrument. Return the instrument to an Agilent Technologies Sales and Service Office for service and repair to ensure that
safety features are maintained.
