uct near water – for example, near a bathtub,

wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub; in a

wet basement; 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, exces-

sive force, and

uneven surfaces

may cause the

product 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 instructions

have been adhered to.

11 Power Sources

– This product should be

operated 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 products intended to

operate from battery power, or other sources,

refer to the operating instructions.

12 Grounding or Polarization

– This product

may be equipped with a polarized alternat-

ing–current line plug (a plug having one

blade wider than the other). This plug will ﬁ 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 ﬁ t, contact

your electrician to replace your obsolete

outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of

the polarized plug.

13 Power-Cord Protection

– Power–supply

lar attention to cords at plugs, convenience

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

speciﬁ ed by the manufacturer that has the

same overload protection as the original

plug.

15 Outdoor Antenna Grounding

– If an outside

antenna or cable system is connected to the

product, be sure the antenna or cable 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 informa-

Safety Instructions

tion with regard 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–discharge unit, connection to

grounding electrodes, and requirements for

the grounding electrode.

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 lines surges.

17 Power Lines

– An outside 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 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 ﬁ 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 ﬁ re or electric shock. Never spill

liquid of any kind on the product.

20 Servicing

product yourself as opening or removing
