Important Safeguards
11. Grounding or Polarization
– This video unit may be
equipped with either a polarized 2-wire AC (Alternating
Current) line plug (a plug having one blade wider than
the other) or 3-wire grounding type plug, a plug having
a third (grounding) pin.
The 2-wire polarized plug will fit into the power outlet
only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable
to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the
plug. If the plug still fails to fit, contact your electrician
to replace your obsolete outlet.
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
The 3-wire grounding type plug will fit into a grounding
type power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are
unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact your
electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not
defeat the safety purpose of the grounding type plug.
12. Power-Cord Protection
– Power-supply cords should
be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or
pinched by items placed upon or against them. Paying
particular attention to cords of plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the unit.
13. Outdoor Antenna Grounding
– If an outside antenna
or cable system is connected to the video unit, be sure
the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to
provide some protection against voltage surges and
built-up static charges. Part 1 of the Canadian Electrical
Code, in USA Section 810 of the National Electrical
Code, 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.
14. Lightning
– For added protection of this video unit
receiver during a lightning storm, or when it is left
unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug
it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or
cable system. This will prevent damage to the video
unit due to lightning and power-line surges.
15. Power Lines
– 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.
16. Overloading
– Do not overload wall outlets and
extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire or
electric shock.
17. Objects and Liquids
– Never push objects of any kind
into this video unit 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 onto the video unit.
