in a wet basement, near a swimming pool, in an unprotected
outdoor installation, or any area which is classified as a wet
location.
8. Accessories - Do not place this unit on an unstable stand, tripod,
bracket, or mount. The unit may fall, causing serious injury to a
person and serious damage to the unit. Use only with a stand,
tripod, bracket, or mount recommended by the manufacturer, or
sold with the product. Any mounting of the unit should follow the
manufacturer's instructions, and should use a mounting accessory
recommended by the manufacturer.
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.
9. Ventilation - Openings in the enclosure, if any, are provided for
ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the unit and to
protect it from overheating. These openings must not be blocked
or covered. This unit should not be placed in a built-in installation
unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer's
instructions have been adhered to.
10. Power Sources - This unit should be operated only from the type
of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure
of the type of power supply you plan to use, consult your
appliance dealer or local power company. For units intended to
operate from battery power, or other sources, refer to the
operating instructions.
11. Grounding or Polarization - This unit may be 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 the polarized plug.
Alternately, this unit may be equipped with a 3-wire grounding-
type plug, a plug having a third (grounding) pin. This plug will only
fit into a grounding-type power outlet. This is a safety feature. If
you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact your
electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety
purpose of the grounding-type plug.
12. Power-Cord Protection - 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 and
plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit
from the appliance.
13. Power Lines - An outdoor 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 outdoor system, extreme care should be taken to
keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with
them might be fatal. U.S.A. models only - refer to the National
Electrical Code Article 820 regarding installation of CATV
systems.
14. Overloading - Do not overload outlets and extension cords as this
can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
15. Object and Liquid Entry - Never push objects of any kind into this
unit 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 unit.
16. Servicing - Do not attempt to service this unit yourself as opening
or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other
hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
17. Damage Requiring Service - Unplug the unit from the outlet and
refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following
conditions:
a. When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged.
b. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the unit.
c. If the unit has been exposed to rain or water.
d. If the unit does not operate normally by following the
operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are
covered by the operating instructions, as an improper
adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will
often require extensive work by a qualified technician to
restore the unit to its normal operation.
e. If the unit has been dropped or the cabinet has been
damaged.
f. When the unit exhibits a distinct change in performance--this
indicates a need for service.
18. Replacement Parts - When replacement parts are required, be
sure the service technician has used replacement parts specified
by the manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the
original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric
shock or other hazards.
19. Safety Check - Upon completion of any service or repairs to this
unit, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to
determine that the unit is in proper operating condition.
20. Coax Grounding - If an outside cable system is connected to the
unit, be sure the cable system is grounded. U.S.A. models only--
Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA
No.70-1981, provides information with respect to proper
grounding of the mount and supporting structure, grounding of the
coax to a discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of
discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and
requirements for the grounding electrode.
21. Lightning - For added protection of this unit 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 cable
system. This will prevent damage to the unit due to lightning and
power-line surges.
