operating instructions should be adhered to.
4. Follow Instructions – All operating and use instructions should be

6. Carts and Stands – The appliance should be used only with a cart
or stand that is recommended by the manufacturer.
7. An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care.
Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the
appliance and cart combination to overturn.
8. Wall or Ceiling Mounting – The appliance should be mounted to a
wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.
9. Ventilation – The appliance should be situated so that its location
or position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. For
example, the appliance 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 a bookcase or cabinet that
may impede the flow of air through the ventilation openings.
10. Heat – The appliance should be situated away from heat sources
such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances
(including amplifiers) that produce heat.
11. Power Sources – The appliance should be connected to a power
supply only of the type described in the operating instructions or as
marked on the appliance.
12. Grounding or Polarization – Precautions should be taken so that
the grounding or polarization means of an appliance is not
defeated.

13. 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
appliance.
14. Cleaning – The appliance should be cleaned only as recom-
mended by the manufacturer.
15. Power Lines – An outdoor antenna should be located away from
power lines.
16. Outdoor Antenna Grounding – If an outside antenna is connected
to the receiver, 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. 70-
1984, 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. See Figure 1.
17. Nonuse Periods – The power cord of the appliance should be
unplugged from the outlet when left unused for a long period of
time.
18. Object and Liquid Entry – Care should be taken so that objects do
not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through
openings.
19. Damage Requiring Service – The appliance should be serviced by
qualified service personnel when:
A. The power-supply cord or the plug has been damaged; or
B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has spilled into the appliance; or
C. The appliance has been exposed to rain; or
D. The appliance does not appear to operate normally or exhibits
a marked change in performance; or
E. The appliance has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged.
