outlet circuit which powers only that appliance
and has no additional outlets or branch
circuits. Check the specification page of this
owner's manual to be certain.
Do not connect too many appliances to the
same AC power outlet as this could result in
fire or electric shock.

outlets, loose or damaged wall outlets, extension
cords, frayed power cords, or damaged or
cracked wire insulation are dangerous. Any of
these conditions could result in electric shock
or fire. Periodically examine the cord of your
appliance, and if its appearance indicates damage
or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue use of
the appliance, and have the cord replaced with
an exact replacement part by an authorized
servicer. Protect the power cord from physical
or mechanical abuse, such as being twisted,
kinked, pinched, closed in a door, or walked
upon. Pay particular attention to plugs, wall

If an outdoor antenna is installed, follow the
precautions below. An outdoor antenna system
should not be located in the vicinity of over-
head power lines or other electric light or
power circuits, or where it can come in contact
with such power lines or circuits as death or
serious injury can occur.
Be sure the antenna system is grounded so as
to provide some protection against voltage
surges and built-up static charges.
Section 810 of the National Electrical Code
NEC) in the U.S.A. provides information with
respect 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 dis-
charge unit, connection to grounding elec-
trodes and requirements for the grounding
electrode.
