Grounding or Polarization
• Polarized

electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the
safety purpose of the polarized plug.

If this product is equipped with a three-wire grounding type
plug, a plug having a third (grounding) pin, it will only fit into a
grounding type power outlet. This 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.
Ground Loop WARNING:
To avoid earth or ground loops , insure that all equipment
connected to the MR-HD100 share a common ground. Use a
single, grounded outlet strip as opposed to separate outlets with
the possibility of different ground potentials.

During electrical storms or when left unattended and unused for
long periods of time, unplug the MR-HD100 from the power
source and disconnect the antenna or cable system.
Power Lines
Do not locate an outside antenna system in the vicinity of
overhead power lines, electric light or power circuits, or where it

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.
