IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 

 

14.

 

LIGHTNING: For added protection for the unit 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 unit due to lightning and power line surges.  
 

15.

 

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, take extreme care to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be 
fatal. 
 

16.

 

OVERLOADING: Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this can 
result in a risk of fire or electric shock. 
 

17.

 

OBJECT AND LIQUID ENTRY: Never push objects of any kind into the unit 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. 
 

18.

 

SERVICING: Do not attempt to service the unit yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to 
dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. 
 

19.

 

REPLACEMENT PARTS: When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used 
replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized 
substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or other hazards. 
 

20.

 

SAFETY CHECK: Upon completion of any service or repairs to the unit, ask the service technician to perform safety 
checks to determine that the unit is in proper operating condition. 

 

21.

 

WALL OR CEILING MOUNTING: The unit should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the 
manufacturer. 
 

22.

 

HEAT: The unit should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other units 
(including amplifiers) that produce heat. 
 

23.

 

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTE: Before connecting a new component such as the DVD 7 to your audio or home 
theater system it is always good practice to make certain that all components are turned off, and preferably 
unplugged from their AC power source. Many modern electronics products feature automatic turn-on circuits that 
may be activated during an installation, causing the potential for damage to electronic components and/or speakers. 
Such damage is not covered by product warranties and Cary Audio specifically disclaims responsibility for any such 
damage.

 

 

Power Cord: The removable power cord that is shipped with the player is specifically designed to be used with this 
product. Other AC cords may be used, so consult your dealer for advice on AC power cords and high quality wire in 

your system.

 

 

AC Fuse: The fuse is located inside the chassis and is not user serviceable. If power does not 
come on, contact your authorized service representative.

 

 

Wiring: Cables that run inside of walls should have the appropriate markings to indicate compliance with, and listing 
by the UL, CSA or other standards required by the UL, CSA, NEC or your local building code. Questions about cables 
inside of walls should be referred to a qualified custom installer, or a licensed electrician or low-voltage contractor.

 

 

Do Not Open the Cabinet: There are no user serviceable components inside this product. Opening the cabinet 
may present a shock hazard, and any modification to the product will void your warranty. If water or any metal 
object, such as a paper clip, coin, or staple accidentally falls inside the unit, disconnect it from the AC power source 
immediately and contact Cary Audio for further instructions.  

 

24.

 

RECORDING COPYRIGHT: Recording of copyrighted material for other than personal use is illegal without 
permission of the copyright holder. 

 

25.

 

NOTE TO CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER: This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer's attention to 
article 820-40 of the NEC, ANSI/NFPA 70, which provides guidelines 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.
