Grounding or Polarization: This product may be equipped with a polarized

alternating-current line plug that has one blade wider than the other. This plug

will only fit into the power outlet in one direction. This is a safety feature. If you

are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the direction of

the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact an electrician to replace the

obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
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 at

the point which they exit from the product.
Protective Attachment Plug: The product may be equipped with an attach-

ment plug with overload protection. This is a safety feature. See the operating

instructions for replacement or directions to reset the protective device. If

replacement of the plug is required, be sure the service technician has used

a replacement plug that has the same overload protection as the original plug

as specified by the manufacturer.
Outdoor Antenna Grounding: If an outside antenna is connected to the prod-

uct, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection

against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National

Electrical Code, ANS/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 an-

tenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements

for the grounding electrode (see figure).
