READ FIRST! Important Safety Precautions!
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 a 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, partic-
ularly at plugs, convenience recep-
tacles and the point where they exit
from the apparatus.
11.
Only use attachments/acces-
sories specified by the manufacturer.
12. Use only with the 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. Do not use attachments not
recommended by the product
manufacturer, as they may cause
hazards.
16. 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 product dealer or local power
company. For products intended to
operate from battery power or other
sources, refer to the operating
instructions.
17. If an outside antenna or cable
system is connected to the product,
be sure the antenna or cable sys-
tem is grounded so as to provide
some protection against voltage
surges and built-up static charges.
Article 810 of the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/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 require-
ments for the grounding electrode.
See Figure A.
18. 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.
19. Do not overload wall outlets,
extension cords, or integral
convenience receptacles, as this
can result in a risk of fire or
electric shock.
20. Never push objects of any kind
into this product through openings,
as they may touch dangerous volt-
age points or short-out parts, which
could result in a fire or electric
shock. Never spill liquid of any kind
on the product.
21. The apparatus shall not be
exposed to dripping or splashing,
and no objects filled with liquids,
such as vases, shall be placed on
the apparatus.
22. Do not attempt to service this
product yourself, as opening or
removing covers may expose you to
dangerous voltage or other hazards.
Refer all servicing to qualified
service personnel.
23. When replacement parts are
required, be sure the service tech-
nician has used replacement parts
specified by the manufacturer or
that have the same characteristics
as the original part. Unauthorized
substitutions may result in fire,
electric shock or other hazards.
24. Upon completion of any service
or repairs to this product, ask the
service technician to perform safety
checks to determine that the prod-
uct is in proper operating condition.
25. The product should be mounted
to a wall or ceiling only as recom-
mended by the manufacturer.
The exclamation point within an equilateral
triangle is intended to alert the user to the
presence of important operating and
maintenance (servicing) instructions in the
literature accompanying the appliance.
CAUTION
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
DO NOT OPEN
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock,
do not remove cover (or back).
No user-serviceable parts inside.
Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
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.
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol,
within an equilateral triangle, is intended to
alert the user to the presence of uninsulated
“dangerous voltage” within the product’s
enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute
a risk of electric shock to persons.
