Alternatively, if this product is equipped with a three-wire grounding-type plug, a plug
with a third (grounding) pin, it will only fit into a grounding-type power outlet. This
is a safety feature. If the plug does not fit, contact your electrician to replace your
obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type plug.
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 point where they
exit from the product.
Protective Attachment Plug - The product is equipped with an attachment plug
having overload protection. This is a safety feature.
See Owners' Manual for
replacement or resetting of protective device. If replacement of the plug is required,
be sure the service technician has used a replacement plug specified by the
manufacturer that has the same overload protection as the original plug.
Lightning - For added protection for this product 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 product
due to lightning and power-line surges.
Overloading - Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral
convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

technician to restore the product to its normal operation
e)
If the product has been dropped or damaged in any way
f)
When the product exhibits a distinct change in performance
- this indicates a need for service
Replacement Parts - When replacement parts are required, be sure the service
technician has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or have the
same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorised substitutions may result in fire,
electric shock, or other hazards.
