9. Grounding or Polarization: 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. Power-Cord Protection: 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. Accessories: Only use attachments/ac- cessories specified by the manufacturer. Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand tripod, bracket, or table. The

product may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the product.

See Instruction Manual for replace- ment or resetting of protective device. If replacement of the plug is required, be sure the service technician has used a replace- ment plug specified by the manufacturer that has the same overload protection as the original plug.

23. Power Lines: An outside antenna sys- tem 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.
