Quick stops, excessive
force, and uneven surfaces may cause the
product and cart combination to overturn.
10. Ventilation.
Slots and openings in the
cabinet are provided for ventilation and to
ensure reliable operation of the product and
to protect it from overheating, and these
openings must not be blocked or covered.
The openings should never be blocked by
placing the product on a bed, sofa, rug, or
other similar surface. This product should
not be placed in a built-in installation such
as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventila-
tion is provided or the manufacturer’s
instructions have been adhered to.
11. Power Sources.
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.
12. Grounding or Polarization.
This product
may be equipped with a polarized alter-
nating-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.
13. 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 partic-
ular attention to cords at plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit
from the product.
14. Nonuse Periods.
The power cord of the
product should be unplugged from the outlet
when left unused for long periods of time.
15. Outdoor Antenna Grounding.
If an out-
side 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, connec-
tion to grounding electrodes, and require-
ments for the grounding electrode. See
Figure 1.
16. Lightning.
For added protection for this
product during a lightning storm, or when
it is left unattended and unused for long
periods of time, unplug it from the wall out-
let and disconnect the antenna or cable sys-
tem. This will prevent damage to the product
due to lightning and power-line surges.
17. 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.
18. Overloading.
Do not overload wall out-
lets, extension cords, or integral conve-
nience receptacles, as this can result in a
risk of fire or electric shock.
19. Object and Liquid Entry.
Never push
objects of any kind into this product
through openings, as they may touch dan-
gerous voltage points or short-out parts that
could result in a fire or electric shock. Never
spill liquid of any kind on the product.
20. Servicing.
Do not attempt to service
this product yourself, as opening or remov-
ing covers may expose you to dangerous
voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing
to qualified service personnel.
21. Damage Requiring Service.
Unplug this
product from the wall outlet and refer ser-
vicing to qualified service personnel under
the following conditions:
a.
The power-supply cord or the plug has
been damaged; or
b.
Objects have fallen onto, or liquid has
been spilled into, the product; or
c.
The product has been exposed to rain or
water; or
d.
The product does not operate normally
when following the operating instructions.
Adjust only those controls that are covered
by the operating instructions, as an improper
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; or
e.
The product has been dropped or damaged
in any way; or
f.
The product exhibits a distinct change
in performance – this indicates a need for
service.
22. Replacement Parts.
When replacement
parts are required, be sure the service tech-
nician 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. Safety Check.
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. Wall or Ceiling Mounting.
The product
should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only
as recommended by the manufacturer.
25. Heat.
The product should be situated
away from heat sources such as radiators,
heat registers, stoves, or other products
(including amplifiers) that produce heat.
