Important Safety Instruction

CAUTION: Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

Please carefully study this manual and always keep it available. There are, however, some installation and operation precautions which you should be aware of .

(1)Read these instructions-All the safety and operating instructions should be read before the product is operated.

(2)Keep these instructions-The safety and operating instructions should be retained for future reference.

(3)Heed all warnings-All warnings on the product and in the operating instructions should be adhered to.

(4)Follow all instructions-All operating and use instructions should be followed.

(5)Do not use this apparatus near water-The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and that no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.

(6)Clean only with dry cloth-Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Clean only with dry cloth.

Exception: A product that is meant for uninterrupted service and that for some specific reason, such as the possibility of the loss of an authorization code for a CATV converter, is not intended to be unplugged by the user for cleaning or any other purpose, may exclude the reference to unplugging the product in the cleaning description otherwise required in 131.8(5)

7)Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer's instruction-Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it from overheating, and these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This product should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer's instructions have been adhered to .

(8)Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

(9)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 is provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

(10)Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus. 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 at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the product.

(11)Only use attachments/'accessories specified by the manufacturer. Do not use attachments not recommended by the product manufacturer as they may cause hazards.

(12)Use only the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the appa- ratus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

 

 

Important Safety Instruction

Continued

(13)Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when 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 product due to lightning and power-line surges.

(14)Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

(15)Power Sources- This 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 power supply to your home, consult your product dealer or local power company. For products intended to operate from battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.

(16)Protective Attachment Plug-The product is equipped with an attachment plug having overload protection. This is a safety feature. See instruction manual for replacement or resetting of protective device. If replacement of the plug is required, be sure the service technician has used a replacement plug specified by the manufacturer that has the same overload protection as the original plug.

(17)Outdoor Antenna Grounding- If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the product, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANS/NFPA 70, provides information with regard to proper grounding conductors, location or antenna- discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

(18)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.

(19)Overloading- Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

(20)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 product.

(21)Servicing -Do no attempt to service this product yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

(22)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, or other hazards.

(23)Safety Check- Upon completion of any service or repairs to this product, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to determine that the product is in proper operating condition.
