IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Please read and observe the following safety points at all times.

WARNING - PowerSources

Do not plug your Monster

®

PowerSource into a power outlet that differs from the source indicated

for safe use of the Monster PowerSource. If you don’t know the type of electrical power that is supplied to
your home, please consult your local power company.

WARNING - Grounding and Polarization

A. Your Monster PowerSource has a three-wire grounding-type AC plug (a three-prong plug).
This plug is designed to be inserted into a grounding-type outlet only. If this plug doesn’t fit directly into your outlet,
do not attempt to force it. [Never attempt to dismantle the plug in any way (or to alter an extension cord) to make
it fit into a two-prong outlet. Do not attempt to defeat the grounding feature by using a 3-to-2 prong adapter.
Instead, call a local electrician to install a properly grounded outlet.]

B. If you use rooftop devices such as Satellite dishes, antennas, or any other component with wire
that connects to your PowerSource, be sure the wire(s) is properly grounded.
Use grounding techniques
specified in Section 810 of the National Electrical Code (NEC), ANSI/NFPA 70 (in Canada, Part 1 of the Canadian
Electrical Code). This protects against harmful voltage surges and static discharges, Do not place any part of an
antenna near overhead power lines, or any other power circuit. Do not touch any power line or power circuit. Doing
so may cause severe physical injury and may result in death.
