Uniden Hd6000 User manual

Safety First

Please review the following safety precautions. If this is your first time to use a digital receiver,

then read this manual before installing or using this receiver. If the receiver is not functioning

properly, please contact your local distributor or system installer.

The lightening symbol in a triangle is used to alert you to the presence of dangerous

voltages inside the receiver that may be sufficient to constitute a risk of electric shock to

anyone opening the case. It is also used to indicate improper installation or handling of

the receiver that could damage the electrical system in the receiver or in other equipment

attached to the receiver.

The exclamation point in a triangle is used to alert you to important operating and

maintenance instructions. Failure to follow these instructions could result in injury to you

or damage to the receiver.

Be careful with electricity:

Power outlet: To prevent electric shock, make sure the electrical plug used on the receiver’s

power cord matches the electrical outlet used to supply power to the receiver. Connect the

power cord only to a power source that operates at 100~240 Volts AC, 50/60 Hz.

Power plug: If a three-prong power plug is provided with the receiver, make sure it is used

with a properly grounded three-wire power socket.

Power cord: Make sure the power cord is routed so that it will not be stepped on or pinched

by heavy items.

Power overloading: Avoid overloading electrical outlets or extension cords, which otherwise

could result in electric shock or fire.

Lightning: For protection from lightning, or when the receiver is left unattended for a long

period, disconnect it from the power source.

Protect other equipment: Unplug the receiver before connecting any other equipment,

especially the antenna. Connect all equipment to the receiver before plugging any power

cords to the power source.

Also follow these precautions:

Ventilation: Do not block the ventilation slots on the receiver, or place any heavy object on top

of it. Blocking the airflow could damage the receiver. Arrange components so that air can flow

freely around the receiver. Ensure that there is adequate ventilation if the receiver is placed in

a stand. Put the receiver in a properly ventilated area, away from direct sunlight or any source

of heat.

Overheating: Avoid stacking the receiver on top of a hot component such as a power

amplifier.

Risk of Fire: Do not place the receiver on top of any easily combustible material, such as

carpet or fabric.

Proper Connections: Make sure all cables and equipment are connected to the receiver as

described in this manual.

Object Entry: To avoid electric shock, never stick anything in the slots on the case or

remove the cover.

Water Exposure: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose the receiver to rain

or moisture.

Plastic Protective Film: Receivers when shipped have a protective thin plastic film over the

Front Panel; this plastic film should be removed and discarded.
