2.

Keep these instructions.

3.

Heed all warnings.

4.

Follow all instructions.

5.

Do not use this apparatus near water.

6.

Clean only with a dry cloth.

7.

Do not block any ventilation openings.

Install in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.

8.

Do not install near any heat sources

such as radiators, heat registers, stoves
or other apparatus (including amplifiers)
that produce heat.

9.

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.

10.

Protect the power cord from being

walked on or pinched, particularly at
plugs, 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 when moving the
cart/apparatus combination to avoid
injury from tip-over.

13.

Unplug this apparatus during lightning

storms or when unused for long periods
of time.

14.

Refer all servicing to qualified service

personnel. Servicing is required when the
apparatus has been damaged in any way,
such as 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.

15.

Do not use attachments not recom-

mended by the product manufacturer, as
they may cause hazards.

16.

This product should be operated only

from the type of power source indicated
on the marking label. If you are not sure
of the type of power supply to your home,
consult your product dealer or local
power company. For products intended to
operate from battery power, or other
sources, refer to the operating
instructions.

17.

If an outside antenna or cable system

is connected to the 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 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. See Figure A.

18.

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.

19.

Do not overload wall outlets,

extension cords, or integral convenience
receptacles, as this can result in a risk of
fire or electric shock.

20.

Never push objects of any kind into

this product through 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 product.

21.

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.

22.

When replacement parts are required,

be sure the service technician has used
replacement parts specified by the
manufacturer or that have the same
characteristics as the original part.
Unauthorized substitutions may result in
fire, electric shock or other hazards.

23.

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.

24.

The product should be mounted to a

wall or ceiling only as recommended by
the manufacturer.

                        The exclamation point within an equilateral
                        triangle is intended to alert the user to the
                        presence of important operating and
                        maintenance (servicing) instructions in the 
literature accompanying the appliance.

CAUTION

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

DO NOT OPEN

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock, 

do not remove cover (or back). 

No user-serviceable parts inside. 

Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.

CAUTION: To prevent electric shock,

 do not use this (polarized) plug with 

an extension cord, receptacle or other outlet 

unless the blades can be fully inserted to 

prevent blade exposure.

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, 
within an equilateral triangle, is intended to 
alert the user to the presence of uninsulated

                       “dangerous voltage” within the product’s 
enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute 
a risk of electric shock to persons.
