FIRE AND SHOCK HAZARD
1. Be sure that all componentsare positionedto avoid a possibilityof adjacent
componentshorts.This isespeciallyimportantonitemstrans-portedtoandfrom
therepairshop.
2. Verifythat all protectivedevicessuch as insulators,barriers,covers,shields,
strainreliefs,powersupplycords,andotherhardwarehavebeenreinstalledper
theoriginaldesign.Be surethatthe safetypurposeofthepolarizedlineplughas
notbeen defeated.
3. Soldering must be inspectedto discover possiblecold solder joints, solder
splashes,or sharp solder points. Be certainto remove all loose foreign par-
ticles.
4. Checkfor physicalevidenceof damageor deteriorationto partsand compo-
nents, for frayed leads or damaged insulation(includingthe AC cord), and
replaceif necessary.
5. No leador componentshouldtoucha highcurrentdeviceora resistorratedat 1
wattor more.Lead tensionaroundprotrudingmetalsurfacesmustbeavoided.
6. Afterreassemblyoftheset, alwaysperformanAC leakagetest on allexposed
metallic parts of the cabinet (the channel selector knobs, antenna terminals,
handle and screws)to be surethat set is safe to operatewithoutdanger of
electricalshock.DO NOTUSEA LINEISOLATIONTRANSFORMERDURING

TIPSON PROPERINSTALLATION
1. Neverinstallanyreceiverin aclosed-inrecess,cubbyhole,orcloselyfittingshelf
spaceover,orcloseto, aheat duct,or inthepathofheatedairflow.
2. Avoidconditionsofhighhumiditysuchas: outdoorpatioinstallationswheredew
is afactor,nearsteamradiatorswheresteamleakageisafactor,etc.
3. Avoid placementwhere draperiesmay obstructventing.The customershould
alsoavoidthe use ofdecorativescarvesor othercoveringsthatmightobstruct
ventilation.
4. Wall- and shelf-mountedinstallationsusing a commercialmounting kit must
followthe factory-approvedmountinginstructions.A productmountedto a shelf
or platformmust retainitsoriginalfeet (ortheequivalentthicknessin spacers)to
provideadequateairflow acrossthebottom.Boltsor screws usedforfasteners
must nottouch anyparts or wiring.Performleakagetestsoncustomizedinstal-
lations.
5. Cautioncustomersagainstmountinga producton a slopingshelfor in a tilted
position,unlessthe receiverisproperlysecured.
6. A producton aroll-aboutcartshouldbestablein itsmountingtothe cart.
Cautionthe customeron the hazardsof tryingto roll a cart with smallcasters
acrossthresholdsor deep pilecarpets.
7. Cautioncustomersagainstusingextensioncords.Explainthata forestofexten-
sions, sproutingfrom a singleoutlet, can lead to disastrousconsequencesto
home andfamily.
