The following notice applies to all countries and regions:

DANGER

Outdoor antenna
grounding

If an outside antenna or cable system is connected
to the equipment, be sure the antenna or cable
system is grounded as to provide some protection
against voltage surges and built-up static charges.

Lightning

For added protection for this equipment during a
lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and
unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the
wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable
system. This will prevent damage to the video
product due to lightning and power line surges.

Power lines

An outside antenna system should not be located
in the vicinity of overhead power lines 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 may be fatal.

Using headphones or earphones

If your computer has both a headphone connector and an audio line-out
connector, always use the headphone connector for headphones (also called a
headset) or earphones.

CAUTION:
Excessive sound pressure from earphones and headphones can cause
hearing loss. Adjustment of the equalizer to maximum increases the
earphone and headphone output voltage and the sound pressure level.
Therefore, to protect your hearing, adjust the equalizer to an appropriate
level.

Excessive use of headphones or earphones for a long period of time at high
volume can be dangerous if the output of the headphone or earphone connectors
do not comply with specifications of EN 50332-2. The headphone output
connector of your computer complies with EN 50332-2 Sub clause 7. This
specification limits the computer’s maximum wide band true RMS output voltage
to 150 mV. To help protect against hearing loss, ensure that the headphones or
earphones you use also comply with EN 50332-2 (Clause 7 Limits) for a wide band
characteristic voltage of 75 mV. Using headphones that do not comply with EN
50332-2 can be dangerous due to excessive sound pressure levels.
