Grounding or Polarization: This product may be equipped with a polarized alternating-current line plug that has one 12.
blade wider than the other. This plug will only t into the power outlet in one direction. This is a safety feature. If you
are unable to insert the plug fully into the outl et, try reversing the direction of the plug. If the plug should sti ll fail to
t, contact an electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safet y purpose of the polarized plug.
Power-Cord Protection: Power supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched 13.
by items placed upon or against them, paying par ticular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacl es, and
at the point which they exit from the product.
Protective Attachment Plug: The product may be equipped with an attachment plug with overload protection. This is 14.
a safety feature. See the operating instructions for replacement or directions to reset the protective device. If replace-
ment of the plug is required, be sure the service technician has used
a replacement plug that has the same overload protection as
the original plug as specied by the manufacturer.
Outdoor Antenna Grounding: If an outside antenna 15.
is connected to the product, be sure the antenna
system is grounded so as to provide some pro-
tection against voltage surges and built-up static
charges. Artic le 810 of the National Electrical
Code, ANS/NFPA 70 provides information with
regard to proper grounding of the mast and sup-
porting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire
to an antenna-discharge unit, size of grounding
conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit,
connection to grounding electr odes, and require-
ments for the grounding electrode (see gure).
Overloading: Do not overload wall outlets, extension 16.
cords, or integral convenience receptacles as t his can result in
