a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for
long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and discon-
nect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to
the product due to lightning and power-line surges.
16) Power Lines — An outside antenna system should not be
located in the vicinity of overhead 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.
17) Overloading — Do not overload wall outlets, extension
cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this can result in
risk of fire or electric shock.
18) Object and Liquid Entry — Never push objects of any
kind into this product through openings as they may touch dan-
gerous voltage points or short-out parts that could result in a
fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the prod-
uct.
19) Servicing — Do not attempt to service this product your-
self as opening or removing covers may expose you to danger-
ous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified
service personnel.
20) Damage Requiring Service — Unplug this product
from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service per-
sonnel under the following conditions:
a) when the power-supply cord or plug is damaged.
b) if liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the
product.
c) if the product has been exposed to rain or water.
d) if the product does not operate normally by following the
operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are cov-
ered by the operating instructions as an improper adjustment of
other controls may result in damage and will often require
extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the product
to its normal operation.
e) if the product has been dropped or damaged in any way.
f ) when the product exhibits a distinct change in performance
_
this indicates a need for service.
21) Replacement Parts — When replacement parts are
required, be sure the service technician has used replacement
parts specified by the manufacturer or have the same character-
istics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result
in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.
22) Safety Check — Upon completion of any service or
repairs to this product, ask the service technician to perform
safety checks to determine that the product is in proper operat-
ing condition.
23) Wall or Ceiling Mounting — The product should be
mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the man-
ufacturer.
24) Heat — The product should be situated away from heat
sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other prod-
ucts (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
"Note to CATV system installer:
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s
attention to Section 820-40 of the NEC which provides guide-
lines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the
cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the
building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
10) Ventilation — Slots and openings in the cabinet are pro-
vided 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 sim-
ilar 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 prod-
ucts 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 alternating-current line plug (a plug
having one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit 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 fit, contact your electri-
cian to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety
purpose of the polarized plug.
13) Power-Cord Protection — Power-supply cords should
be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched
by items placed upon or against them, paying particular atten-
tion to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point
where they exit from the product.
14) Outdoor Antenna Grounding — If an outside antenna
or cable system is connected to the product, be sure the anten-
na or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection
against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of
the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides infor-
mation with regard to proper grounding of the mast and sup-
porting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna
discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of anten-
na-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and
requirements for the grounding electrode.
