NOTE TO CABLE/TV INSTALLER
(For USA and Canada)
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the National Electric Code (U.S.A.). The code 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 the cable
entry as practical.
WARNING! (STABILITY HAZARD)
A television set may fall, causing serious personal injury or death. Many injuries, particularly to children, can be avoided by taking simple precautions such as:
-
ALWAYS use cabinets or stands or mounting methods recommended by the manufacturer of the television set.
-
ALWAYS use furniture that can safely support the television set.
-
ALWAYS ensure the television set is not overhanging the edge of the supporting furniture.
-
ALWAYS educate children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach the television set or its controls.
-
ALWAYS route cords and cables connected to your television so they cannot be tripped over, pulled or grabbed.
-
NEVER place a television set in an unstable location.
-
NEVER place the television set on tall furniture (for example, cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring both the furniture and the television set to a
suitable support.
-
NEVER place the television set on cloth or other materials that may be located between the television set and supporting furniture.
-
NEVER place items that might tempt children to climb, such as toys and remote controls, on the top of the television or furniture on which the television
is placed.
If the existing television set is going to be retained and relocated, the same considerations as above should be applied.
