13An 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 cir- cuits as contact with them might be fatal.

14Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in fire or electric shock.

15Never push objects of any kind into this TV/VCR Combination 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 TV/VCR Combination.

16Do not attempt to service this TV/VCR Combination yourself as opening or remov- ing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

17Unplug this TV/VCR Combination from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following condi- tions:

(a)When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged or frayed.

(b)If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the TV/VCR Combination.

19Upon completion of any service or repairs to this TV/VCR Combination, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to deter- mine that the television is in a safe operating condition.

20If an outside antenna or cable system is con- nected to the television receiver, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges.

Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA N0.70-1984, provides informa- tion with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.
