2. Save Instructions – Save all safety and operating instructions for future reference.

3. Heed Warnings – Read carefully and follow all warning labels on the product and those described in the instructions.

4. Grounding, Polarization – If this product is used with a specified AC adapter, the adapter may be equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug. This product may be equipped with a polarized alternating -current line plug. This plug will fit into the power outlet, try

reversing the plug. If the plug still fails to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. To prevent electric shock, do not use this polarized plug with an extension cord, receptacle, or other outlet unless the blades can be fully inserted without blade exposure. If you need an extension cord, use a polarized cord.

1. Power Sources - This product should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your video dealer or local power company. For products intended to operate from battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.

2. Overloading - Do not overload wall outlets or extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock. Overloaded AC outlets, extension cords, frayed power cords, damaged or cracked wire insulation, and broken plugs are dangerous. They may result in a shock or fire hazard. Periodically examine the cord, and if its appearance indicated damage or deteriorated insulation, have it replaced by your service technician.

3. 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 product.

4. Ventilation - Slots and openings in the case are provided for ventilation to ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it from overheating. These openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa, rug, or heat register. This product should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a book case or rack, unless proper ventilation is provided or the product manufacturer's instructions have been followed.

5. Attachments - Do not use attachments unless recommended by the product manufacturer as they may cause hazards.

6. Water and Moisture - do not use this product near water for example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool and the like. Caution: Maintain electrical safety. Power line operated equipment or accessories connected to this unit should bear safety certification mark on the accessory itself and should not be modified so as to defeat the safety features. This will help avoid any and should not be modified so as to defeat the safety features. This will help avoid any potential hazard from electrical shock or fire. If in doubt, contact qualified service personnel.

7. Accessories - Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The product may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult as well as serious damage to the product. Use this product only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the manufacturer' or sold with the product. Any mounting of the product should follow the manufacturer's instructions and use of a mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer.

11a. A product and card combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the product and cart combination to overturn. Note to CATV system installer. This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer's attention to Section 820-40 of the NEC which 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.

1. Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the product, 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 No.70-1984 (Section 54 of Canadian Electrical Code, Part1) provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

2. Power Lines - An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines, 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 or approaching such power lines or circuits, as contact with them might be fatal. Installing an outdoor antenna can be hazardous and should be left to a professional antenna installer.

Use

1. Cleaning - Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.

2. Objects that may touch dangerous voltage points or "short-out" parts could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.

3. Lightning -For added protection for this product 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 product due to lightning and power line surges.
