Safety Summary

The following safety precautions apply to both operating and maintenance personnel and must be
observed during all phases ofoperation, service, and repair ofthis instrument. Before applying power,
follow the installation instructions and become familiar with the operating instructions for this

Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere in this manual violates
safety standards ofdesign, manufacture, and intended use ofthe instrument. B&K assumes no liability for
a customer’s failure to comply with these requirements. This is a Safety Class I instrument.

GROUND THE INSTRUMENT

To minimize shock hazard, the instrument chassis and cabinet must be connected to an electrical ground.
This instrument is grounded through the ground conductor ofthe supplied, three-conductor ac power
cable. The power cable must be plugged into an approved three-conductor electrical outlet. Do not alter

instrument in such an environment constitutes a definite safety hazard.

KEEP AWAY FROM LIVE CIRCUITS

Instrument covers must not be removed by operating personnel. Component replacement and internal
adjustments must be made by qualified maintenance personnel. Disconnect the power cord before
removing the instrument covers and replacing components. Under certain conditions, even with the
power cable removed, dangerous voltages may exist. To avoid injuries, always disconnect power and
discharge circuits before touching them.

DO NOT SERVICE OR ADJUST ALONE

Do not attempt any internal service or adjustment unless another person, capable ofrendering first aid and
resuscitation, is present.
