ensure reliable operation of the product and
to protect it from overheating, and these
openings must not be blocked or covered.
The openings should never be blocked by

have been adhered to.

11. Power Sources.

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.

12. Grounding or Polarization. 

This product

may be 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 should still fail to fit,
contact your electrician to replace your
obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety
purpose of the polarized plug.

13. 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 particu-
lar attention to cords at plugs, convenience
receptacles and the point where they exit
from the product.

14. Nonuse Periods.

The power cord of the

product should be unplugged from the outlet
when left unused for long periods of time.

15. Outdoor Antenna Grounding.

If an out-

side antenna or a 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, connec-
tion to grounding electrodes and require-
ments for the grounding electrode. See
Figure 1.

16. Lightning.

For added protection for this

product during a lightning storm, or when it
is left unattended and unused for long peri-
ods 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.

17. Power Lines.

An outside antenna system

should not be located in the vicinity of over-
head power lines, 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.

18. Overloading.

Do not overload wall out-

lets, extension cords or integral convenience
receptacles, as this can result in a risk of
fire or electric shock.

19. Object and Liquid Entry. 

Never push

objects of any kind into this product through
openings, as they may touch dangerous volt-
age points or short-out parts that could
result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill
liquid of any kind on the product.

20. Servicing.

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.

21. Damage Requiring Service.

Unplug this

product from the wall outlet and refer servic-
ing to qualified service personnel under the
following conditions:

a.

The power-supply cord or the plug has

been damaged; or

b.

Objects have fallen onto, or liquid has

been spilled into, the product; or

c.

The product has been exposed to rain or

water; or

d.

The product does not operate normally

when 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 prod-
uct to its normal operation; or

e.

The product has been dropped or damaged

in any way; or

f.

The product exhibits a distinct change 

in performance – this indicates a need for
service.

22. Replacement Parts.

When replacement

parts are required, be sure the service tech-
nician 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.

23. Safety Check.

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.

24. Wall or Ceiling Mounting. 

The product

should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only
as recommended by the manufacturer.
