16. Damage Requiring Service -The appliance should be serviced by
qualified service personnel when:
A. The power supply cord or the plug has been damaged; or
B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the appliance; or
C, The appliance has been exposed to rain; or
D, The appliance does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a
marked change in performance; or
E. The appliance has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged.
17. Tilt/Stability- All televisions must comply with recommended
international global safety standards for tilt and stability properties
of its cabinet design.
Do not compromise these design standards by applying exces
sire pull force to the front, or top, of the cabinet which could
ultimately overturn the product.
. Also, do not endanger yourself, or children, by placing electronic
equipment/toys on the top of the cabinet. Such items could

damage and/or personal injury.
18. Wall or Ceiling Mounting- The appliance should be mounted to
a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.
19. Power Lines - An outdoor antenna should be located away from
power lines.
20. 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.
Section 810 of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-
1984, 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 connectors, location of
antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and
requirements for the grounding electrode. See Figure below.
2I. Object and Liquid Entry
- Care should be taken so that objects do not fall and
liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through openings.
a) Warning: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, this apparatus
should not be exposed to rain or moisture and objects filled with
liquids, such as vases, should not be placed on this apparatus.

Do not mix batteries (old and new or carbon and alkaline, etc.).
Remove batteries when the unit is not used for a long time.
Note to the CATV system installer:This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that
provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the
bui ding, as c ose to the point of cab e entry as practica.
