ment, or near a swimming pool, and the like.
8. Accessories - Do not place this product on an
unstable cart, stand tripod, bracket, or table. The
product may fall, causing serious injury to a child
or adult, and serious damage to the product. Use
only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table
recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with
the product. Any mounting of the product should
follow the manufacturer’s instructions, and
should use a mounting accessory recommended
by the manufacturer.
9. A product and cart combination should be
moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force,
and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and
cart combination to overturn.
10. Ventilation - Slots and openings in the cabinet
are provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable
operation of the product and to protect it from
overheating, and these openings must not be
blocked or covered. The openings should never
be blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa,
rug, or other similar surface. This product should
not be placed in a built-in installation such as
a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is
provided or the manufacturer’s instruction have
been adhered to.
11. Power Sources - This product should be oper-
ated only from the type of power source indicated
on the marking label. If you are not sure of the
type of power supply to your home, consult your
product dealer or local power company. For prod-
ucts intended to operate from battery power, or
other sources, refer to the operating instruction.
12. Grounding or Polarization - This product may
be equipped with a polarized alternating-current
line plug (a plug having one blade wider than
the other). This plug will t into the power outlet
only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are
unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try
reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail
to t, contact your electrician to replace your
obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose
of the polarizes plug.
Alternate Warnings - This product is equipped
with a three-wire grounding-type plug, a plug
having a third (grounding) pin. This plug will
only t into a grounding-type power outlet. This
is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the
plug into the outlet, contact your electrician to
replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the
safety purpose of the grounding-type plug.
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 point
where they exit from the product.
14. Protective Attachment Plug - The product
is equipped with an attachment plug having
overload protection. This is a safety feature. See
Instruction Manual for replacement or resetting
of protective device. If replacement of the plug is
required, be sure the service technician has used
a replacement plug specied by the manufacturer
that has the same overload protection as the
original plug.
15. Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside
antenna is connected to the receiver, be sure the
antenna system is grounded so as to provide some
protection against voltage surges and built-up
static charges. Article 810 of the National Electri-
cal Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information
with regard to proper grounding of the mast and
supporting structure, grounding of the mast and
supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in
wire to an antenna-discharge unit, size of ground-
ing conductors, location of antenna-discharge
unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and
requirements for the grounding electrode.
See gure:
16. 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 wall outlet and
disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will
prevent damage to the product due to lightning
and power-line surges.
17. 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.
18. Overloading - Do not overload wall outlets,
extension cords, or integral convenience
receptacles as this can result in a risk of re or
electric shock.
19. 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 re or
electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on
the product.
20. Servicing - Do not attempt to service this
product yourself as opening or removing covers
may expose you to dangerous voltage or other
hazards. Refer all servicing to qualied service
personnel.
21. Damage Requiring Service - Unplug this
product from the wall outlet and refer servicing
to qualied service personnel under the following
conditions:
a) When the power-supply cord or plug is
damaged,
b) If liquid has been spilled, or objects have
fallen into the product,
c) If the product has been exposed to rain or
water,
d) 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 qualied technician
to restore the product to its normal operation.
e) If the product has been dropped or damaged
in any way, and
f) When the product exhibits a distinct change in
performance - this indicates a need for service.
22. Replacement Parts - When replacement
parts are required, be sure the service technician
has used replacement parts specied by the
manufacturer or have the same characteristics as
the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may
result in re, electric shock, or other hazards.
23. 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 in proper operating condition.
24. Wall or Ceiling Mounting - The product
should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as
