d. If the unit does not operate normally by

following the operating instructions.
Adjust only those controls that are
covered by the operating instructions, as
an improper adjustment of other controls
may result in damage and will often
require extensive work by a qualified
technician to restore the unit to its normal
operation.

e. If the unit has been dropped or the cabinet

has been damaged.

When the unit exhibits a distinct change
in performance, this indicates a need for
service.

20. REPLACEMENT PARTS-

When replacement

parts are required, be sure the service
technician uses replacement parts specified
by the manufacturer or those that have the
same characteristics as the original part.
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire,
electric shock or other hazards.

21. SAFETY CHECK-

Upon completion of any

service or repairs to this unit, ask the service
technician to perform safety checks to
determine that the unit is in proper operating
condition.

22. HEAT-

The product should be situated away

from heat sources such as radiators, heat
registers, stoves, or other products (including
amplifiers) that produce heat.

23. NOTE TO CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER-

This reminder is provided to call the CATV
system installer's attention to Article 820-40
of the NEC that 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.

12. 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 appliance.

13. LIGHTNING-

To protect your 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.

14. 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.

15. OVERLOADING-

Do not overload wall

outlets and extension cords as this can result
in a risk of fire or electric shock.

16. OBJECT AND LIQUID ENTRY-

Do not push

objects through any openings in this unit as
they may touch dangerous voltage points or
short out parts that could result in fire or
electric shock. Never spill or spray any type
of liquid into the unit.

17. OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING-

If an

outside antenna or cable system is con-
nected to the unit, be sure the antenna or
cable system is grounded to provide some
protection against voltage surges and built-up
static charges. Section 810 of the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides
information with respect to proper grounding
of the mast and supporting structure,
grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna
discharge unit, size of grounding conductors,
location of antenna discharge unit, connec-
tion to grounding electrodes, and require-
ments for the grounding electrode.

18. SERVICING-

Do not attempt to service this

unit yourself as opening or removing covers
may expose you to dangerous voltage or
other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified
service personnel.

19. DAMAGE REQUIRING SERVICE-

Unplug

this unit from the wall outlet and refer
servicing to qualified service personnel under
the following conditions:
a. When the power-supply cord or plug is

damaged.

b. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have

fallen into the unit.

c. If the unit has been exposed to rain or water.

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an
equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the
presence of uninsulated dangerous voltage within
the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient
magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock.

9. VENTILATION-

Slots and openings in the

cabinet back or bottom are provided for
ventilation, to ensure reliable operation of the
unit and to protect it from overheating. These
openings must not be blocked or covered.
The openings should never be blocked by
placing the unit on a bed, sofa, rug, or other
similar surface. This unit should never be
placed near or over a radiator or heat source.
This unit should not be placed in a built-in
installation, such as a bookcase, or rack
unless proper ventilation is provided or the
manufacturer's instructions have been
adhered to.

10. POWER SOURCE-

This unit should be

operated only from the type of power source
indicated on the rating plate. If you are not
sure of the type of power supply to your
home, consult your appliance dealer or local
power company. For units intended to
operate from battery power, or other sources,
refer to the operating instructions.

11. GROUNDING OR POLARIZATION-

This

unit is equipped with a polarized alternating
current line plug (a plug having one blade
wider than the other). This plug will 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 still fails to fit, contact your electri-
cian to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not
defeat the safety purpose of the polarized
plug. If your unit is 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 too, 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.
