CAUTION:   Is  it  important  that  you  read  and
follow  all  of  the instructions in this booklet and 
any   marked   on   the   unit   itself.   Retain  this 
booklet for future reference.
   

  Accessories--- Never  place   this   product  on  an 

unstable  platform,  stand,  cart,  wall  mount,    shelf, 
or  table.  The  product  may  fall,  causing      serious 
personal  injury  to  persons  and  pets,   as   well   as 
seriously   damaging   the  product.   Use  only    with 
a  stable  platform,  stand,  cart,  wall  mount,    shelf, 
or  table   that  has  been  recommended  by CURTIS 
Technology or sold with the product .  Any  mounting 
of  the  product   should  follow  the   manufacturer's 
instructions, and use a  mounting  accessory  recom-
mended by the manufacturer.  This unit while positio-
ned  on  some  type  of cart must be moved with care.
 Quick stops,  excessive force,  and uneven surfaces
 may   cause   the  product  and  cart  combination  to 
overturn.
     Attachments---Use only attachments recommended

  

by  CURTIS  Technology,  as  they  may cause hazards.
     Cleaning---Always  unplug  this  unit from the wall 
electrical outlet before cleaning.  Do not use liquid or 
aerosol cleaners; use a damp cloth for cleaning.
     Grounding or Polarization - This product is equipp-
ed  with  either  a  polarized  AC  plug  ( a plug having 
one blade wider than the other) or  with a   three-wire 
grounding-type plug. These plugs 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 an electrician. Do not defeat  the safety  pur-
pose of the polarized plug in any way or manner.
     Lightning--- For  added  product protection during
a  lightning  storm or  when  it  is  left unattended and
unused  for  long  periods  of  time, unplug it from the 
wall outlet and/or disconnect  the 

antenna or cable

system. This will prevent damage to the product 
due to lightning and power-line surges.
     Object and Liquid Entry---Never push objects 
of  any kind into this product  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 
or into the product.
     Outdoor Antenna Grounding---If  an  outside 
antenna  or  cable  system  is  connected  to the 
product, be sure  the  antenna  or  cable system 
is grounded so as to provide protection  against 
voltage  surges   and   built-up   static   charges. 
Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI
/NFPA  70, provides information with  regard  to 
proper  grounding  of  the  mast  and supporting 
structure, grounding  of  the  lead-in  wire  to  an 
antenna discharge unit, size or  grounding  con-
ductors,   location  of  antenna-discharge   unit, 
connection to grounding electrodes, and require-
ments for the grounding electrode.
   

   Overloading--- Do   not   overload   wall   outlets, 

extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles,
as this may result in a fire or electric shock.

CAUTION:   Is  it  important  that  you  read  and
follow  all  of  the instructions in this booklet and 
any   marked   on   the   unit   itself.   Retain  this 
booklet for future reference.

      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 at plugs, 
convenience receptacles,  and  the  point where they 
exit from the product.
      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.
