Keep these instructions.
3.
Heed all warnings.
4.
Follow all instructions.
5.
Do not use this apparatus near water.
6.
Clean only with a dry cloth.
7.
Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
8.
Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other apparatus
(including amplifiers) that produce heat.
9.
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two
blades with one wider than the other. A grounding-type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong.
The wide blade or the third prong is provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into
your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
10.
Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles and
the point where they exit from the apparatus.
11.
Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer
.
12.
Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket or table specified by the manufacturer or sold with the apparatus.
When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
13.
Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
14.
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord
or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not
operate normally, or has been dropped.
15.
Do not use attachments not recommended by the product manufacturer, as they may cause hazards.
16.
This product should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply
to your home, consult your product dealer or local power company. For products intended to operate from battery power, or other sources, refer to
the operating instructions.
17.
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 some 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 of grounding conductors,
location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode. See Figure A.
18.
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.
19.
Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles, as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
20.
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 the product.
21.
The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing, and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.
22.
Do not attempt to service this product yourself, as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all
servicing to qualified service personnel.
23.
When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or that have the same
characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or other hazards.
24.
Upon completion of any service or repairs to this product, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to determine that the product is in
proper operating condition.
25.
The product should be mounted to a wall or ceiling
only as recommended by the manufacturer.
Note to CATV system installer:
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s
attention to Article 820-22 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.
