bracket, or table. The unit may fall, causing serious
injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the
unit. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or
table recommended by the manufacturer or sold with
the unit. Any mounting of the device should follow the
manufacturer’s instructions, and should use a mounting
accessory recommended by the manufacturer.
Read all the safety and operating instructions before connecting or using
this unit.
Retain this notice and the owner’s manual for future reference.
All warnings on the unit and in its operating instructions should be adhered to.
All operating and use instructions should be followed.
Do not use this unit near water. For example, near a bathtub, washbowl,

The unit should be installed so that its location or position does not interfere
with its proper ventilation. For example, it should not be situated on a
bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface that may block the ventilation openings;
or placed in a built-in installation, such as bookcase or cabinet, that may
impede the ow of air through its ventilation openings.
The unit should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat
registers, stoves, or other devices (including ampliers) that produce heat.
The unit should be connected to a power supply outlet only of the voltage
and frequency marked on its rear panel.
The power supply cord should be routed so that it is not likely to be walked
on or pinched, especially near the plug, convenience receptacles, or where
the cord exits from the unit.
Clean unit only as recommended in its instruction manual.
The power supply cord of the unit should be unplugged from the wall outlet
when it is to be unused for a long period of time.
Care should be taken so that objects do not fall, and liquids are not spilled,
into the enclosure through any openings.
This unit should be serviced by qualied service personnel when:
A. The power cord or the plug has been damaged; or
B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled, into the unit; or
C. The unit has been exposed to rain, or liquids of any kind; or
D. The unit does not appear to operate normally, or exhibits a marked
change in performance; or
E. The device has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged.
ATTENTION
POUR PREVENIR LES CHOCS ELECTRIQUES NE PAS UTILISER CETTE FICHE
POLARISEE AVEC UN PROLONGATEUR, UNE PRISE CE COURANT OU UNE
AUTRE SORTIE CE COURANT, SAUF SI LES LAMES PEUVENT ETRE INSEREES
A FOND SANS EN LAISSER AUCUNE PARTIE A DECOUVERT.
CAUTION
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 TO PREVENT BLADE EXPOSURE.
CAUTION POWER LINES
Any outdoor antenna must be located away from all power lines.
OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING
If an outside antenna is connected to your tuner or tuner/preamplier,
be sure the antenna 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. 701984, 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.
a. Use No.10 AWG (5.3 mm
2
) copper, No.8 AWG (8.4 mm
2
) aluminum, No.17
AWG (1.0 mm
2
) copper clad steel or bronze wire, or larger, as a ground wire.
b. Secure antenna lead-in and ground wires to house with stand-off
insulators spaced from 46 feet (1.221.83 m) apart.
c. Mount antenna discharge unit as close as possible to where lead-in enters
house.
d. Use jumper wire not smaller than No.6 AWG (13.3 mm
2
) copper, or the
equivalent, when a separate antenna grounding electrode is used. See NEC
Section 810-21 (j).

INSTRUCTIONS CONTAINED IN ARTICLE 810. RADIO AND TELEVISION EQUIPMENT.
NOTE TO CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to
Article 82022 of the National Electrical Code that provides guidelines for
proper grounding and, in particular, species that the cable ground shall
be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the
point of cable entry as practical.
DO NOT ATTEMPT SERVICING OF THIS UNIT YOURSELF.
REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.
