IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS - 5 -
instructions.
11. Grounding or Polarization-This video product is equipped with a
polarized alternating-current line plug (a plug 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
appliance.
13. Outdoor Antenna Grounding-If an outside antenna or cable
system is connected to the video product, be sure the antenna or cable
system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage
surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 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 antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes,
and requirements for the grounding electrode. (Fig. A)

14. Lightning-For added protection for this video product 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.
15. Power Lines-An outside antenna system should not be located in
the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power
circuits, 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
might be fatal.
16. Overloading-Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as
this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any
kind on the video product.
17. Object and Liquid Entry-Never push objects of any kind into this
video product through any openings as they may touch dangerous
voltage points or short-out parts that could result in a fire or electric
shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the video product.
18. Servicing-Do not attempt to service this video product yourself as
opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or
other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
19. Damage Requiring Service-Unplug this video product from the
wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the
