Limited 90-Day Warranty

• Read and retain all the safety and operating instructions.
• This appliance should not be used near water, such as near a

bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub.

• This amplifier should be situated so that its location or

position does not interfere with its proper ventilation.

• This amplifier should be connected only to a power supply of

the type described in the operating instructions or as marked

on the amplifier.

• Do not attempt to defeat the grounding or polarization

components of this amplifier.

• Wipe the amplifier with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it

looking new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents,

or strong detergents to clean the amplifier.

• The power cord of the amplifier should be unplugged from

the outlet when left unused for extended periods of time.

• Do not allow liquids to spill through the amplifier’s openings.
• The amplifier should be situated away from heat sources

such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other appliances

that cause heat. Temperature extremes can shorten the life

of electronic devices and distort or melt plastic parts.

• If an outside antenna is connected to a receiver, be sure the

antenna system is grounded to provide some protection

against voltage surges, built-up static charges, and lightning

strikes. Section 810 of the National Electric Code (NEC),

ANSI/NFPA NO. 70-1990, provides information with respect

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.

• The CATV system installers attention should be directed to

Article 820-40 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.

Specifications are typical; Individual units might vary. Specifications are subject to change and improvement without notice.

• Do not use pliers to tighten screw-on F-connectors.
• Never connect both an outdoor antenna and the output from

the amplifier to the antenna input of your TV or VCR without

using a high isolation A/B switch. Doing so could cause

interference with other nearby receivers.

• For an additional grounding method, remove a rubber foot

from the amplifier and back out the #6 grounding screw. Place

a grounding wire over the grounding screw and tighten the

screw back into the housing.

• In extremely long cable runs (distances over 200 feet),

additional amplification might be needed.

Cautions:

You must use a Class 2 power source that supplies 12V DC and delivers at least

100 mA. Its center tip must be set to positive and its plug must fit the amplifier's

adapter

jack. The supplied adapter meets these specifications. Using an adapter

that does not meet these specifications could

damage the amplifier or the adapter.

Always connect the AC adapter to the amplifier before you connect it to AC power. When you finish,
disconnect the adapter from AC power before you disconnect it from the amplifier.
