The lightning flash with arrow head symbol, within an equi-
lateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence
of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the product's
enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute
a risk of electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is in-
tendedto alert the user to the presence ofimportant operat-
ingandmaintenance(servicing) instructions in the literature
accompanying the appliance.

alternating-current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This
plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are
unabletoinserttheplugfullyintotheoutlet,tryreversingtheplug.Iftheplugshould
stillfailtofit, contact your electrician to replace yourobsoleteoutlet.Do not defeat
the safety purpose of the polarized plug.

terre. Assurez-vous que la connection a la terre ne manque pas.
13. Power-Cord Protection—Power-supply cords should be routed so that they
are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them,
paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the
point where they exit from the product.
14. Outdoor Antenna Grounding—If an outside antenna or cable system is
connectedto the product, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as
to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges.
Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information
with regard to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding
of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors,
location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and
requirements for the grounding electrode. See Figure A.
15. Lightning—For added protection for this product during a lightning storm, or
when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the
walloutlet and disconnect theantenna or cable system.This will prevent damage
to the product due to lightning and power-line surges.
16.PowerLines—Anoutsideantennasystemshouldnotbelocatedinthe vicinity
ofoverhead power lines, other electric light or power circuits, where it can fall into
suchpowerlinesor circuits. When installing an outsideantennasystem, extreme
careshouldbetakentokeepfromtouchingsuchpowerlinesorcircuitsascontact
with them may be fatal.
17. Overloading—Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral
convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
18. 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.
19. Servicing—Do not attempt to service this product yourself as opening or
removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer
