IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

12. POWER-CORD PROTECTION- 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 appliance.

13. LIGHTNING- To protect your unit during a

lightning storm, or when it is left unattended

and 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 unit due to lightning and

power line surges.

14. 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

d. If the unit does not operate normally by
	following the operating instructions.
	Adjust only those controls that are
	covered by the operating instructions, as
	an improper adjustment of other controls
	may result in damage and will often
	require extensive work by a qualified
	technician to restore the unit to its normal
	operation.
e.	If the unit has been dropped or the cabinet
	has been damaged.
f.	When the unit exhibits a distinct change
	in performance, this indicates a need for
	service.
20. REPLACEMENT PARTS- 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.

1.READ INSTRUCTIONS- All the safety and operating instructions should be read before the unit is operated.

2.RETAIN INSTRUCTIONS- The safety and operating instructions should be retained for future reference.

3.HEED WARNINGS-All warnings on the unit and in the operating instructions should be adhered to.

4.FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS- All operating and use instructions should be followed.

5.CLEANING- Unplug this unit from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning the exterior cabinet only.

6.ATTACHMENTS- The manufacturer of this unit does not make any recommendations for attachments, as they may cause hazards.

7.WATER AND MOISTURE- Do not use this unit near water. For example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool.

8.ACCESSORIES- Do not place this unit on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The unit may fall, causing serious injury, and serious damage to the unit.

PORTABLE CART WARNING (symbol provided by RETAC)

S3126A

REMOTE CONTROL

8A. An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn.

9.VENTILATION- Slots and openings in the cabinet back or bottom are provided for ventilation, to ensure reliable operation of the unit and to protect it from overheating. These openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the unit on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This unit should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat source. This unit 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.

10.POWER SOURCE- This unit should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the rating plate. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your appliance dealer or local power company. For units intended to operate from battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.

11.GROUNDING OR POLARIZATION- This unit is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug still fails to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug. If your unit is equipped with a 3-wiregrounding-type plug, a plug having a third (grounding) pin, this plug will only fit into a grounding-type power outlet. This too, is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat

the safety purpose of the grounding-type plug.

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.

15. OVERLOADING- Do not overload wall

outlets and extension cords as this can result

in a risk of fire or electric shock.

16. OBJECT AND LIQUID ENTRY- 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.

17. OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING- If an

outside antenna or cable system is con-

nected 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, connec-

tion to grounding electrodes, and require-

ments for the grounding electrode.

18. SERVICING- Do not attempt to service this

unit yourself as opening or removing covers

may expose you to dangerous voltage or

other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified

service personnel.

19. DAMAGE REQUIRING SERVICE- Unplug

this unit from the wall outlet and refer

servicing to qualified service personnel under

the following conditions:

a. When the power-supply cord or plug is

damaged.

b. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have

fallen into the unit.

c. If the unit has been exposed to rain or water.

Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire,

electric shock or other hazards.

21. SAFETY CHECK- 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. HEAT- The product should be situated away

from heat sources such as radiators, heat

registers, stoves, or other products (including

amplifiers) that produce heat.

23. NOTE TO CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER

This reminder is provided to call the CATV

system installer's attention to Article 820-40

of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper

grounding and, in particular, specifies that the

cable ground shall be connected to the

grounding system of the building, as close to

the point of cable entry as practical.

Before using the remote control transmitter, batteries must first be installed.

HOW TO INSTALL BATTERIES

1. Open the battery compartment cover.

2. Install two "AAA" (penlight size) batteries.

3. Replace the battery compartment cover.

Use two "AAA" size penlight batteries (not supplied) for the transmitter.The batteries may last approximately one year depending on how much the remote control is used. For best performance, it is recommended that batteries should be replaced on a yearly basis, or when the remote operation becomes erratic. Do not mix old and new batteries or different types.

BATTERY PRECAUTIONS

These precautions should be followed when using batteries in this device:

1.Use only the size and type of batteries specified.

2.Be sure to follow the correct polarity when installing the batteries as indicated in the battery compartment. Reversed batteries may cause damage to the device.

3.Do not mix different types of batteries together (e.g. Alkaline and Carbon-zinc) or old batteries with fresh ones.

4.If the device is not to be used for a long period of time, remove the batteries to prevent damage or injury from possible battery leakage.

5.Do not try to recharge batteries not intended to be recharged; they can overheat and rupture.

(Follow battery manufacturer's directions.)
