IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Notice to Installers

The servicing instructions in this notice are for use by qualified service personnel only. To reduce the

risk of electric shock, do not perform any servicing other than that contained in the operating

instructions, unless you are qualified to do so.

Read these instructions.

Keep these instructions.

Heed all warnings.

Follow all instructions.

Do not use this apparatus near water.

Clean only with dry cloth.

Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer's

instructions.

Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other

apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A

polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding-type

plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third

prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your

outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.

11)

Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.

12)

Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the

manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution

14)

Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the

apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as a power-supply cord or plug is

damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the

apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has

been dropped.

Power Source Warning

A label on this product indicates the correct power source for this product. Operate this product only

from an electrical outlet with the voltage and frequency indicated on the product label. If you are

uncertain of the type of power supply to your home or business, consult your service provider or your

local power company.

The AC inlet on the unit must remain accessible and operable at all times.

Ground the Product

WARNING: Avoid electric shock and fire hazard! If this product connects to coaxial

cable wiring, be sure the cable system is grounded (earthed). Grounding provides

some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges.

WARNING: Avoid electric shock and fire hazard! Do not locate an outside antenna

system in the vicinity of overhead power lines or power circuits. Touching power lines

or circuits might be fatal.

This product may contain a tuner capable of receiving off-the-air broadcasts.

Protect the Product from Lightning

In addition to disconnecting the AC power from the wall outlet, disconnect the signal inputs.

Verify the Power Source from the On/Off Power Light

When the on/off power light is not illuminated, the apparatus may still be connected to the power

source. The light may go out when the apparatus is turned off, regardless of whether it is still plugged

into an AC power source.

Eliminate AC Mains Overloads

WARNING: Avoid electric shock and fire hazard! Do not overload AC mains, outlets,

extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles. For products that require battery

power or other power sources to operate them, refer to the operating instructions for

those products.
