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.

III
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 operate the device away
from an explosive atmosphere.
Keep Product Surfaces Clean and Dry.
To avoid the influence of dust 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 buttons, knob interfaces and other
parts on the panels.
