IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION: PLEASE ADHERE TO ALL WARNINGS ON THE PRODUCT AND IN THE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS. BEFORE OPERATING THE PRODUCT, PLEASE READ ALL OF THE SAFETY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS. RETAIN THIS LITERATURE FOR REFERENCE. Follow all instructions...

Positioning the appliance

1.Do not place your appliance on an unstable cart, stand, shelf or table. Serious injury to an individual, and damage to the appliance, may result if it should fall. Your salesperson can recommend approved carts and stands or shelf and wall mounting instructions. An appli-

ance and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn.

2.Slots and openings in the cabinet and in the back or bottom are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the appliance and to protect it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be covered with a cloth or other material, and the bottom openings should not be blocked by placing the unit on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This appliance should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. This appliance should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase unless proper ventilation is provided.

3.Do not expose the appliance to rain or use near water . . . for example, near a bathtub, swimming pool, kitchen sink, in a wet basement, etc.

5.This product should be operated only from the type of power source indi- cated 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. This product is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This 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 should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of this polarized plug. Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

6.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 at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the product.

Cleaning

7.Before cleaning, unplug the unit from the wall outlet. Do not apply liquid clean- ers or aerosol cleaners directly to the unit. Use a dry cloth for cleaning.

Service & Repair

8. Unplug the appliance from the wall outlet and refer servicing to

qualified service personnel under the following conditions:

A. If the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed.

B. If liquid has been spilled into the appliance.

C. If the appliance has been exposed to rain or water.

D. If the appliance has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.

E. If the appliance exhibits a distinct change in performance.

F. If the appliance does not operate normally by following the operating

instructions, adjust only those controls that are covered in the

operating instructions. Improper adjustment of other controls may

result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified

technician to restore the appliance to normal operation.

“Note to CATV system installer:

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40

of the 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.”

4.If an outside antenna is connected to the receiver, be sure the antenna 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 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.

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.

9. Upon completion of any service or repair, request the service techni-

cian’s assurance that only Factory Authorized Replacement Parts that

have the same characteristics as the original parts were used, and that

routine safety checks have been performed to determine that the

appliance is in safe operating condition. Unauthorized substitutions may

result in fire, electrical shock, or other hazards.

10.Never add accessories that have not been specifically designed for use with this appliance as they may cause hazards.

11.For added protection during a lightning storm, or when the set is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna. This will prevent damage to the set due to lightning or power line surges.

12.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.
