IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ BEFORE OPERATING EQUIPMENT
These products were designed and manufactured to meet strict quality
and safety standards. There are, however, some installation and operation
precautions which you should be particularly aware of.
1. Read Instructions—All the safety and operating instructions should
be read before the system is operated.
2. Retain Instructions—The safety and operating instructions should
be retained for future reference.
3. Heed Warnings—All warnings on the appliances and in the operating
instructions should be adhered to.
4. Follow Instructions—All operating and use instructions should
be followed.
5. Cleaning—Unplug the appliances from wall outlets before cleaning. Do
not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.
6. Attachments—Do not use attachments not recommended by the product
manufacturer as they may cause hazards.
7. Water and Moisture—Do not use these appliances 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.
8. Accessories—Do not place these appliances on an unstable cart, stand,
tripod, bracket, or table. The audio/video products may fall, causing serious
injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the products. Use only with
a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the manufacturer, or
sold with the appliances. Any mounting of the appliances should follow the
manufacturer’s instructions, and should use mounting accessories
recommended by the manufacturer.
9. Ventilation—Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation
and to ensure reliable operation of the appliances and to protect them from
overheating, and these openings must not be blocked or covered. The
openings should never be blocked by placing the products on a bed, sofa,
rug, or other similar surface. These products should never be placed near
or over a radiator or heat register. These products should not be placed in
a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation
is provided or the manufacturer’s instructions have been adhered to.
10. Power Sources—These products should be operated only from the type
of power source indicated on the marking labels. If you are not sure of the
type of power supply to your home, consult your appliance dealer or local
power company. For video products intended to operate from battery power,
or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.
11. Grounding or Polarization—These products are equipped with polarized
alternating-current line plugs (plugs having one blade wider than the other).
This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature.
If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the
plug. If the plug should still
fail to fit, contact your
electrician to replace your
obsolete outlet. Do not
defeat the safety purpose of
the polarized plug.
12. 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
appliances.
13. Lightning—For added protection for these audio/video products during
a lightning storm, or when they are left un-attended and unused for long
periods of time, unplug them from the wall outlet and disconnect the
antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the products due
to lightning and power-line surges.
14. Servicing—Do not attempt to service these products yourself as
opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or
other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
15. Damage Requiring Service—Unplug these products from wall
outlets and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the
following conditions:
a. When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged.
b. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the products
c. If the products have been exposed to rain or water.
d. If the products do not operate normally by following the operating
instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating
instructions as an 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 the cabinet has been damaged.
f. When the product exhibits a distinct change in performance-this indicates
a need for service.
16. Replacement Parts—When replacement parts are required, be sure the
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.
17. Safety Check—Upon completion of any service or repairs to these
products, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to determine
that the products are in proper operating condition.
