A Consumer Guide to Product Safety

When used in the directed manner, this unit has been designed and manufactured 
to ensure your personal safety.  However, improper use can result in potential electrical 
shock or fire hazards. Please read all safety and operating instructions carefully before 
installation and use, and keep these instructions handy for future reference. Take 
special note of all warnings listed in these instructions and on the unit.

1.   

Water and Moisture

 – The unit should not be used near water. For example: 

near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, swimming pool or in a wet 
basement. 

2.   

Ventilation

 – The unit should be situated so that its location or position does 

not interfere with its proper ventilation. For example, it should not be situated 
on a bed, sofa, rug or similar surface that may block ventilation openings.  Also, 
it should not be placed in a built-in installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet, 
which may impede the flow of air through the ventilation openings.

3.   

Heat

 – The unit should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, 

heat registers, stoves or other appliances (including amplifiers) that produce 
heat.

4.   

Power Sources

 – The unit should be connected to a power supply only of the 

type described in the operating instructions or as marked on the appliance.

5.   

Power-Cable Protection

 – Power supply cables should be routed so that 

they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against 
them.  It is always best to have a clear area from where the cable exits the unit 
to where it is plugged into an AC socket.

6.   

Cleaning

 – The unit should be cleaned only as recommended.  See the 

Maintenance section of this manual for cleaning instructions.

7.  

Objects and Liquid Entry

 – Care should be taken so that objects do not fall 

and liquids are not spilled into any openings or vents located on the product.

8.  

Attachments

 – Do not use attachments not recommended by the product 

manufacturer.

9.  

Lightning and Power Surge Protection

 – Unplug the unit from the wall 

socket and disconnect the antenna or cable system during a lightning storm or 
when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time. This will prevent 
damage to the product due to lightning and power-line surges.

10. 

Overloading

 – Do not overload wall sockets, extension cords, or integral 

convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

11. 

Damage Requiring Service

 – The unit should be serviced by qualified service 

personnel when:

 

 A.  the power supply cable or plug has been damaged.

 

 B.  objects have fallen into or liquid has been spilled into the enclosure.

 

 C.  the unit has been exposed to rain.

 

 D.  the unit has been dropped or the enclosure damaged.

 

 E.  the unit exhibits a marked change in performance or does not operate 

normally.

12. 

Periods of Nonuse

 – If the unit is to be left unused for an extended period of 

time, such as a month or longer, the power cable should be unplugged from 
the unit to prevent damage or  corrosion.

13. 

Servicing

 – The user should not attempt to service the unit beyond those 

methods described in the user’s operating instructions.  Service methods not 
covered in the operating instructions should be referred to qualified service 
personnel.
