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 are 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, tri-
pod, bracket or table specified by the
manufacturer or sold with the appara-
tus. When a cart is used, use caution
when moving the cart/appa-
ratus combination to avoid
injury from tip-over.
13.
Unplug this apparatus during light-
ning 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 sup-
ply to your home, consult your product
dealer or local power company. For
products intended to operate from bat-
tery 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 dis-
charge unit, size of grounding conduc-
tors, location of antenna-discharge
unit, connection to grounding elec-
trodes, and requirements for the
grounding electrode. See Figure A.
18.
An outside antenna system should
not be located in the vicinity of over-
head 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 that 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 tech-
nician has used replacement parts
specified by the manufacturer or that
have the same characteristics as the
original part. Unauthorized substitu-
tions 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.
