WARNING! Use only the specied AC adapter. Use of another type of AC adapter can damage the instrument and
create the danger of re and electrical shock.
WARNING! To avoid the danger of re and electrical shock:
• Never use a voltage that is different from that for which the AC adapter is rated.
• Do not plug the unit into a power outlet that is shared by other devices.
• Never modify the power cord or excessively bend, twist, or pull it.
• Do not allow the power cord to become damaged.
• Do not place heavy objects on the power cord or expose it to heat.
• Never touch the AC adapter while your hands are wet.
• Should the power cord become seriously damaged (internal wiring exposed or shorted), contact the
manufacturer to request servicing.
• CAUTION! Do not run any tests or perform functions that activate a FlexScan laser unless ber is attached to the
corresponding port.
• CAUTION! To avoid serious eye injury, never look directly into the optical outputs of ber optic network
