Note to Satellite TV System Installer
: This reminder is provided to call the
satellite TV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the National Electrical
Code (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.
Safety Tips
•
Unplug the receiver from the AC power outlet before cleaning.
•
The use of accessories or attachments not recommended by the receiver
manufacturer will void the Limited Warranty.
•
Do not place the receiver in an enclosure such as a cabinet without proper
ventilation.
•
Do not install the receiver in any area where the temperature can be less than 40°F
or more than 113°F.
•
Do not stack the receiver on top of or below other electronic devices.
•
Do not place candles or other meltable objects on top of the receiver.
•
Operate the receiver using only the type of power source indicated on the marking
label. Unplug the receiver power cord by gripping the power plug, not the cord.
•
Do not overload wall outlets or extension cords, as this can result in a risk of fire or
electrical shock.
•
Never insert objects of any kind into the receiver through openings, as the objects
may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts. This could cause fire or
electrical shock.
•
Make sure that the outdoor parts of the antenna system are grounded in accordance
with local, state, federal, and National Electrical Code (NEC) requirements.
•
Do not locate the antenna near overhead light or power circuits, or where it can fall
into such power lines or circuits. When installing the antenna, take extreme care to
avoid touching such power lines or circuits, as contact with them can be fatal.
•
Do not attempt to service the receiver yourself, as opening or removing covers may
expose you to dangerous voltage, and will void the Limited Warranty. Refer all
servicing to authorized service personnel.
•
Use an outlet that contains surge suppression or ground fault protection. For added
protection during a lightning storm, or when the receiver is left unattended and
unused for long periods of time, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet,
disconnect the lines between the receiver and the antenna, and disconnect the
telephone line. This will provide some protection against damage caused by
lightning or power line surges.
