damage to the product due to lightning and power-line surges.
• Power Lines - An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity
of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it
can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna
system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines
or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
• Flame Sources - No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be
placed on the product.
• Object and Liquid Entry - Never push objects of any kind into this product
through openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short-out
parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind
on the product.
• Headphones - Excessive sound pressure form earphones and headphones can
cause hearing loss.
• Damage Requiring Service - Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer
servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:
– When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged.
– If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the product.
– If the product has been exposed to rain or water.
– If the product does not operate normally by following the operating
instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating
instructions as an improper adjustment of other controls may result in
damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to
restore the product to its normal operation.
– If the product has been dropped or damaged in any way.
– When the product exhibits a distinct change in performance-this indicates
a need for service.

technician has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or have
the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may
result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.
• Battery Disposal - When disposing of used batteries, please comply with
governmental regulations or environmental public instruction’s rules that apply
in your country or area.
• Safety Check - Upon completion of any service or repairs to this product, ask
the service technician to perform safety checks to determine that the product is
