1) Read these instructions.
2) Keep these instructions.
3) Heed all warnings.
4) Follow all instructions.
5) Do not use this apparatus near water.
6) Clean only with dry cloth.
7) Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
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 are 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.
11) Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
12) Use only with cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the
apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury
from tip-over.
13) Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
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) Apparatus should not be exposed to dripping or splashing, and objects filled with liquids, such as vases, should not
be placed on the apparatus.
16) 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.
17) Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords, as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
18) Do not push objects through any openings in this unit, as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts
that could result in fire or electric shock. Never spill or spray any type of liquid into the unit.
19) If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the unit, be sure
the antenna or cable system is grounded to provide some protection
against voltage surges and built-up static charges, Section 810 of the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information 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.
20) When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician
uses replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or those that
have the same characteristics as the original part.
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or other hazards.
21) 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.
22) When you connect the product to other equipment, turn off the power and unplug all of the equipment from the wall
outlet. Failure to do so may cause an electric shock and serious personal injury. Read the owner's manual of the other
equipment carefully and follow the instructions when making any connections.
23) Sudden high volume sound may cause hearing or speaker damage. When you use headphones, (if the unit is
equipped with a headphone jack) keep the volume at a moderate level. If you use headphones continuously with high
volume sound, it may cause hearing damage.
