Note to System Installer
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not
remove cover (or back). No user-serviceable parts
inside. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
WARNING
TO PREVENT FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT
EXPOSE THIS UNIT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.
For this apparatus, the coaxial cable shield/screen shall be
grounded as close as practical to the point of entry of the cable
into the building. For products sold in the US and Canada, this
reminder is provided to call the system installer's attention to
Article 820-93 and Article 820-100 of the NEC (or Canadian
Electrical Code Part 1), which provides guidelines for proper
grounding of the coaxial cable shield.
This symbol is intended to alert you that uninsulated voltage
within this product may have sufficient magnitude to cause
electric shock.Therefore, it is dangerous to make any kind of
contact with any inside part of this product.
Ce symbole a pour but d’alerter toute personne qu’un contact
avec une pièce interne de ce produit, sous tension et non isolée,
pourrait être suffisant pour provoquer un choc électrique. Il est
donc dangereux d’être en contact avec toute pièce interne de
ce produit.
This symbol is intended to alert you of the presence
of important operating and maintenance (servicing)
instructions in the literature accompanying this product.

8) Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat
registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers)
that produce heat.
9) Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or
grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with
one wider than the other. A grounding-type plug has two
blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the
third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided

unused for long periods of time.
14) Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing
is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any
way, such as a power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid
has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus,
the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does
not operate normally, or has been dropped.
Power Source Warning
A label on this product indicates the correct power source for this product.

Ground the Product
WARNING: Avoid electric shock and fi re hazard! If this product
connects to coaxial cable wiring, be sure the cable system is grounded
(earthed). Grounding provides some protection against voltage surges
and built-up static charges.
Outdoor Grounding System
If this product connects to an outdoor antenna or cable system, be sure
the antenna or cable system is grounded (earthed). This provides some
protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges.
Article 810 of the National Electric Code (NEC) ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1990,
provides the following information:
• Grounding of the mast and supporting structure
• Grounding the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit
• Size of the grounding conductors
• Location of the antenna-discharge unit
• Connection to grounding electrodes
• Requirements for the grounding electrodes (see the following antenna
grounding diagram as recommended by NEC ANSI/NFPA 70)
• Do not expose batteries to excessive heat (such as sunlight or fi re).
• Do not expose batteries to temperatures above 100°C (212°F).
Battery Disposal
• The batteries may contain substances that could be harmful to the
environment.
• Recycle or dispose of batteries in accordance with the battery
manufacturer’s instructions and local/national disposal and recycling
regulations.
• The batteries may contain perchlorate, a known hazardous substance,
so special handling and disposal of this product might be necessary. For
more information about perchlorate and best management practices
for perchlorate-containing substance, see
