Alternatively, this unit may be equipped with a 3-wire grounding-type 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 your obsolete outlet.
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type plug.
11. 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 attention to cords and plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance.
12. Power Lines - An outdoor 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 outdoor system,
extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or
circuits as contact with them might be fatal. U.S.A. models only - refer to the
National Electrical Code Article 820 regarding installation of CATV systems.
13. Overloading - Do not overload outlets and extension cords as this can
result in a fire or electric shock.

through openings, as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out
parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind
on the unit.
15. Servicing - Do not attempt to service this unit yourself as opening or
removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards.

f. When the unit exhibits a distinct change in performance--this indicates
a need for service.
17. Replacement Parts - When replacement parts are required, be sure the
service technician has used replacement parts specified by the

respect to proper grounding of the mount and supporting structure,
grounding of the coax to a discharge unit, size of grounding conductors,
location of discharge unit,connection to grounding electrodes, and
requirements for the grounding electrode.
20. Lightning - For added protection of this unit during a lightning storm, or
when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from
