IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
•
Read Instructions - Read all the safety and operating instructions before
connecting and operating your TV tuner to help ensure your own personal
safety and to protect your product from potential damage.
•
Retain Instructions - Retain all the safety and operating instructions for future
reference.
•
Heed Warnings - Adhere to all warnings on the product and the operating
instructions.
•
Grounding - For continued protection against risk of electric shock and fire,
this accessory should be installed/connected only to the products, such as a
computer, equipped with a three-wire grounding plug, a plug having a third
(grounding) pin. This plug will only fit into a grounding-type power outlet. This
is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact
your electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety
purpose of the grounding-type plug.
•
Lightning - For added protection and to prevent damage due to lightning and
power-line surges, unplug the host system, such as a computer, from the
wall power outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. Unplug the
host system from the wall power outlet when left unattended or unused for
long periods of time.
•
Never insert anything metallic into the TV tuner openings. Doing so may
create the danger of electric shock.
•
Openings in the TV tuner cabinet are provided for ventilation. To prevent
overheating, these openings should not be blocked or covered. Avoid using
the TV tuner on a bed, sofa, rug, or other soft surface, as doing so may block
the ventilation openings in the cabinet. If you place the TV tuner in a
bookcase or an enclosed space, be sure to provide adequate ventilation and
air flow.
•
Power Lines - An outside antenna system should not be located in the
vicinity of overhead power lines or other light or power circuits, or where it
can fall into such power lines or circuits.
•
Antenna Installation - When installing an outside antenna system, extreme
care should be taken to prevent it from touching such power lines or circuits,
as contact with them may be fatal.
•
Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna is connected to the
product, ensure that the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some
protection against voltage surges and built up static charges. Article 810.21
of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA No.70, provides information with
regard to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding
of the lead-in wire to the antenna discharge unit, size of grounding
conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection of grounding
electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.
