16. Damage Requiring Service -
The appliance should be serviced by
qualifi ed service personnel when:
A.
The power supply cord or the plug has been damaged;
B.
Objects have fallen or liquid has been spilled into the appliance;
C.
The appliance has been exposed to rain;

• Also, do not endanger yourself, or children, by placing electronic
equipment/toys on the top of the cabinet. Such items could
unsuspectingly fall from the top of the set and cause product
damage and/or personal injury.
18. Power Lines -
An outdoor antenna should be located away from
power lines.
19. Outdoor Antenna Grounding -
If an outside antenna is connected
to the receiver, 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 Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-
1984, provides information with respect to proper grounding of the
mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an
antenna discharge unit, size of grounding connectors, location of
antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and
requirements for the grounding electrode. See Figure below.
20. Object and Liquid Entry -
Care should be taken so that objects
do not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through
openings.
21. Battery usage CAUTION -
To prevent battery leakage that may
result in bodily injury, property damage, or damage to the unit:
• Install all batteries correctly, with + and - aligned as marked on
the unit.
• Do not mix batteries (old and new or carbon and alkaline, etc.).
• Remove batteries when the unit is not used for a long time.
22.
Apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no
objects fi lled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the
apparatus.
Note to the Cable TV system installer:
This reminder is provided to call the Cable TV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC
(Section 54 of the Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1) that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifi es that the cable ground
shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
