IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
4038767 Rev B vii
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1)
Read these instructions.
2)
Keep these instructions.
3)
Heed all warnings.
4)
Follow all instructions.
5)
Do not use this apparatus near water.
6)
Clean only with dry cloth.
7)
Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions.
8)
Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other
apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
9)
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A
polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding-type
plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third
prong is provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet,
consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
10)
Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs,
convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
11)
Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
12)
Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the
manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution
when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from
tip-over.
13)
Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of
time.
14)
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the
apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as a power-supply cord or plug is
damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the
apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has
been dropped.
Power Source Warning
A label on this product indicates the correct power source for this product. Operate this product only
from an electrical outlet with the voltage and frequency indicated on the product label. If you are
uncertain of the type of power supply to your home or business, consult your service provider or your
local power company.
The AC inlet on the unit must remain accessible and operable at all times.
Ground the Product
WARNING: Avoid electric shock and fire hazard! If this product connects to coaxial
cable wiring, be sure the cable system is grounded (earthed). Grounding provides
some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
viii 4038767 Rev B
WARNING: Avoid electric shock and fire hazard! Do not locate an outside antenna
system in the vicinity of overhead power lines or power circuits. Touching power lines
or circuits might be fatal.
This product may contain a tuner capable of receiving off-the-air broadcasts.
Protect the Product from Lightning
In addition to disconnecting the AC power from the wall outlet, disconnect the signal inputs.
Verify the Power Source from the On/Off Power Light
When the on/off power light is not illuminated, the apparatus may still be connected to the power
source. The light may go out when the apparatus is turned off, regardless of whether it is still plugged
into an AC power source.
Eliminate AC Power/Mains Overloads
WARNING: Avoid electric shock and fire hazard! Do not overload AC power/mains,
outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles. For products that require
battery power or other power sources to operate them, refer to the operating
instructions for those products.
Provide Ventilation and Select a Location
Remove all packaging material before applying power to the product.
Do not place this apparatus on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface.
Do not place this apparatus on an unstable surface.
Do not install this apparatus in an enclosure, such as a bookcase or rack, unless the installation
provides proper ventilation.
Do not place entertainment devices (such as VCRs or DVDs), lamps, books, vases with liquids, or
other objects on top of this product.
Do not block ventilation openings.
Operating Environment
This product is designed for operation indoors with a temperature range from 32° to 104° F (0° to 40°C).
Each product should have adequate spacing on all sides so that the cooling air vents on the chassis are
not blocked.
Protect from Exposure to Moisture and Foreign Objects
WARNING: Avoid electric shock and fire hazard! Do not expose this product to
dripping or splashing liquids, rain, or moisture. Objects filled with liquids, such as
vases, should not be placed on this apparatus.
WARNING: Avoid electric shock and fire hazard! Unplug this product before cleaning.
Do not use a liquid cleaner or an aerosol cleaner. Do not use a magnetic/static cleaning
device (dust remover) to clean this product.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
4038767 Rev B ix
WARNING: Avoid electric shock and fire hazard! Never push objects through the
openings in this product. Foreign objects can cause electrical shorts that can result in
electric shock or fire.
Service Warnings
WARNING: Avoid electric shock! Do not open the cover of this product. Opening or
removing the cover may expose you to dangerous voltages. If you open the cover, your
warranty will be void. This product contains no user-serviceable parts.
Check Product Safety
Upon completion of any service or repairs to this product, the service technician must perform safety
checks to determine that this product is in proper operating condition.
Protect the Product When Moving It
Always disconnect the power source when moving the apparatus or connecting or disconnecting
cables.
Telephone Equipment Notice
When using your telephone equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce
the risk of fire, electric stock and injury to persons, including the following:
1. Do not use this product near water, for example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink or laundry
tub, in a wet basement or near a swimming pool.
2. Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm. There may be a
remote risk of electric shock from lightning.
3. Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.
