4Extension cord - To help prevent electric shock, do not use a polarized AC power plug with an extension cord, receptacle, or other outlet unless the polarized plug can be completely inserted to prevent exposure of the blades of the plug.

5When not in use - Unplug the AC power cord from the AC outlet if the unit will not be used for several months or more. When the cord is plugged in, a small amount of current continues to flow to the unit, even when the power is turned off.

Outdoor Antenna

1Power lines - When connecting an outdoor antenna, make sure it is located away from power lines.

2Outdoor antenna grounding - Be sure the antenna system is properly grounded to provide protection against unexpected voltage surges or static electricity build-up. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information on proper grounding of the mast, supporting structure, and the lead-in wire to the antenna discharge unit, as well as the size of the grounding unit, connection to grounding terminals, and requirements for grounding terminals.

Precautions on the built-in monitor

•In general, any TFT screen is prone to burn-up (dark spots* become visible in bright pictures) if it is subject to very bright (high intensity) pictures or characters for extended periods of time. Hence, it is recommended not to use the unit with a high brightness setting or with CDs with very bright pictures, for extended periods of time. This may cause damage to the TFT. For the same reason, it is also recommended when playing audio CDs, for extended periods of time, to keep the TFT off.

*A small number of bright or dark dots may appear on the monitor screen. This is common in Active Matrix display technology and is not an indication of malfunction or defect.

•Do not hit or scratch the monitor screen with pointed tips.
