•Unplug the receiver from the AC power outlet before cleaning.
•The use of accessories or attachments not recommended by the receiver manufacturer will void the Limited Warranty.
•Do not place the receiver in an enclosure such as a cabinet without proper ventilation.
•Do not install the receiver in any area where the temperature can be less than 40°F or more than 113°F.
•Do not stack the receiver on top of or below other electronic devices.
•Do not place candles or other meltable objects on top of the receiver.
•Operate the receiver using only the type of power source indicated on the marking label. Unplug the receiver power cord by gripping the power plug, not the cord.
•Do not overload wall outlets or extension cords, as this can result in a risk of fire or electrical shock.
•Never insert objects of any kind into the receiver through openings, as the objects may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts. This could cause fire or electrical shock.
•Make sure that the outdoor parts of the antenna system are grounded in accordance with local, state, federal, and National Electrical Code (NEC) requirements.
•Do not locate the antenna near overhead light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing the antenna, take extreme care to avoid touching such power lines or circuits, as contact with them can be fatal.
•Do not attempt to service the receiver yourself, as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage, and will void the Limited Warranty. Refer all servicing to authorized service personnel.
•Use an outlet that contains surge suppression or ground fault protection. For added protection during a lightning storm, or when the receiver is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, disconnect the lines between the receiver and the antenna, and disconnect the telephone line. This will provide some protection against damage caused by lightning or power line surges.
