Safety Requirement
General Safety Summary
Please review the following safety precautions carefully before putting the
instrument into operation so as to avoid any personal injury or damage to the
instrument and any product connected to it. To prevent potential hazards, please
use the instrument only specif ied by this manual.
Use Proper Power Cord.
Only the power cor d desig ned fo r the ins trument an d authorized for us e within the
local country could be used.
Ground the Instrument.
The instrument is grounded through the Protective Earth lead of the power cord.
To avoid electric shock, it is essential to connect the earth terminal of the power
cord to the Protective Earth terminal before connecting any inputs or outputs.
Connect the Probe Correctly.
If a probe is used, do not connect the ground lead to high voltage since it has
isobaric electric potential as the ground.
Observe All Terminal Ratings.
To avoid fi re or shock hazard, obs e rve all ratings and markers on the instrument
and check your manual for more information about ratings before connecting the
instrument.
Use Proper Overvoltage Protection.
Make sure that no ove rvol tage (such as that cause d by a thun derstorm) can reac h
the product, or else th e op erator might be exposed to the danger of electrical
shock.
Do Not Operate Without Covers.
Do not operate the instrument with covers or panels removed.

Do Not Insert Anything Into the Holes of Fan.
Do not insert anything int o the holes of the fan to avoid damaging t he inst rument .
Use Proper Fuse.
Please use the specified fuses.
Avoid Circuit or Wire Exposure.
Do not touch exposed junctions and components when the unit is powered.
Do Not Operate With Suspected Failures.
If you suspect damage occurs to the instrument, have it inspected by RIGOL
authorized personnel before further oper at io ns. Any maintenance, adjustment or
replacement especially to circuits or accessories must be performed by RIGOL
authorized personnel.
Keep Well Ventilation.
Inadequate ventilation may cause an increase of instrument temperature which
would cause damage to the instrument. So please keep the instrument well
ventilated and inspect the intake and fan regularly.
Do Not Operate in Wet Conditions.
In order to avoid short circuiting to the interior of the device or electric shock,
please do not operate the instrument in a humid environment.
Do Not Operate in an Explosive Atmosphere.
In order to avoid damage to the device or personal injuries, it is important to
operat e the device away from an explos ive atmosphere.
Keep Product Surfaces Clean and Dry.
T o a void the influence of dus t and/or moisture in the air , please keep the surface of
the device clean and dry.
Electrostatic Prevention.
Operate the instrument in an electrostatic discharge protective environment to
avoid damage induced by static discharges. Always ground both the internal and
external conductors of cables to release static before making connections.

Proper Use of Battery.
If a battery is supplied, it must not be exposed to high temperature or in contact
with fire. Keep it out of the reach of children. Improper change of battery (note:
lithium battery) may cause explosion. Use RIGOL specified battery only.
Handling Safety.
Please handle with care during transportation to avoid damage to keys, knob
interfaces and other parts on the panels.
