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 specified by this
manual.
Use Proper Power Cord.
Only the power cord designed for the instrument and authorized for use 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 fire or shock hazard, observe 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 overvoltage (such as that caused by a thunderstorm) can reach the product, or
else the operator 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 into the holes of the fan to avoid damaging the instrument.
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 operations. 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.
