For products intended to operate from battery power or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.

Grounding or Polarization: This product may be equipped with a polarized alternating-current 12. line plug that has one blade wider than the other. This plug will only fit into the power outlet in one direction. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the direction of the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact an electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.

Power-Cord Protection: Power supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to 13. be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and at the point which they exit from the product.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Outdoor Antenna Grounding: If an outside antenna is connected to the product, be sure the 15. antenna 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 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 (see figure).

Antenna Lead-In Wire Ground Clamp Electric Service Equipment Antenna Discharge Unit (NEC Section 810-20) Grounding Conductors (NEC Section 810-21) Ground Clamps Power Service Grounding Electrode System (NEC Art 250, Part H)

Lightning: For added protection for this product, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect 16. the antenna or cable system during a lightning storm or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time. This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning or power-line surges.

  1. 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.

Overloading: Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience recep-18. tacles as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

Object and Liquid Entry: Never push objects of any kind into this product through openings 19. as they may touch dangerous voltage points or shout-out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.

Servicing: Do not attempt to service this product yourself as opening or removing covers may 20. expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

Damage Requiring Service: Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer servicing to 21. qualified service personnel under the following conditions: a) when the power-supply or plug is damaged; b) if liquid has been spilled or if objects have fallen into the product; c) if the product has been exposed to rain or water; d) if the product does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions as improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the product to its normal operation; e) if the product has been dropped or damaged in any way; f) when the product exhibits a distinct change in performance—this indicates a need for service.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Replacement Parts: When replacement parts are required, be sure that your 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 shock, or other hazards.
