READ FIRST! Important Safety Precautions!
1. Read these instructions.
2. 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, which 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.
