Overloading - Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords because this can result in fire or electric shock. Do not place the unit in an area where people will walk on the cord.
Outdoor Antenna
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 onto such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to avoid touching power lines or circuits because contact with them may be fatal.
Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the unit, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and

the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions because improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage to the unit and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the unit to normal operation.
5)If the unit has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.
6)When the unit exhibits a distinct change in performance - this indicates a need for service.
Do not attempt to service the unit yourself because opening or removing covers may expose you to high voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
Replacement Parts - When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or having the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or other hazards.
