24. NOTE TO CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER

To protect your product from 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 product

due to lightning and power-line surges.

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 power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

Never push objects of any kind through openings in the product as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short

out parts that could result in fire or electric shock. Never spill or spray any type of liquid on the product.

If an outside antenna is connected to the product, 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 Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA

70, provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the

lead-in wire to an antenna discharge product, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge product,

connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for grounding electrodes.

Do not attempt to service this product yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage

or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician uses replacement parts specified by the

manufacturer or those that have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result

in fire, electric shock or other hazards.

Upon completion of any service or repairs to this product, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to

determine that the product is in proper operating condition.

The product should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.

Unplug the product from the wall outlet 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 product.

c. If the product has been exposed to rain or water.

d. If the product does not operate normally after installation by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those

controls that are covered by the operating instructions, as 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.

The product should be situated away from heat

sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves,

or other products (including amplifiers) that

produce heat.

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system

installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC

that provides guidelines for proper grounding

and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground

shall be connected to the grounding system of the

building, as close to the point of cable entry as

practical.

Installation

Optimum reception of colour requires a good signal and will generally mean that an outdoor antenna must

be used. The exact type and position of the antenna will depend upon your particular area.

It is recommended that the 75-ohm coaxial cable be used to eliminate interference and noise which

may occur due to radio wave conditions.

The antenna cable should not be bundled with the power cord and the like.

Notes:

INSTALL the unit in a room where direct light will not fall upon the screen.

Total darkness or a reflection on the picture screen may cause eyestrain.

Soft and indirect lighting is recommended for comfortable viewing.
