CLEANING

•Unplug this video product from the wall outlet before

cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.

LIGHTNING

•For added protection of this video product 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 product due to lightning and power-line surges.

OBJECT AND LIQUID ENTRY

•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 video product.

ACCESSORIES

•Do not place this video product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The video product may fall, caus- ing serious injury to a child or adult,

and serious damage to the appliance.

Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table recom- mended by the manufacturer, or sold with the video prod- uct. Any mounting of the appliance should follow the manufacturer's instructions and should use a mounting accessory recommended by the

manufacturer.

CART

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

POWER SOURCES

•This video product should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of supply to your home, consult your appli- ance dealer or local power company. For video

products intended to be operated from battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.

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.

POLARIZATION

•This video 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 out- let 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 electri- cian to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
