100:1 probe can probe what max voltage?

Hi,
We have a Rigol DS1074 scope.
We want to measure our flash tester output, as we believe it is going above 4kV due to resonance with Y caps.
Do you agree, we cannot use a 100:1 probe, as DS1074 only allows 30V at the terminals?

Page 6 of the datasheet says its ok to have 300Vrms into a 1MOhm channel. But that means with a 10:1 probe, so i am surprised they dont state that...because a 1:1 probe and 300vrms will blow the scope up.
