and the like.  Caution : Maintain  electrical safety. Powerline operated equipment or
accessories connected to this unit should bear the UL listing mark or CSA certification

qualified service personnel.

force, and uneven  surfaces may cause the video product and cart combination to overturn.

13

Power Lines- An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead
power lines, 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

might be fatal. Installing an outdoor antenna can be hazardous and should be left to a
professional antenna installer.
