LIGHTNING - For added protection of this DVD-VCR during 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 DVD-VCR due to lightning and power line surges.
14.
POWER LINES - An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other
electric light or power circuits, 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.
15.
OVERLOADING - Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in the risk of fire or electric
shock.
16.
OBJECTS AND LIQUIDS - Never push objects of any kind into this DVD-VCR through openings as they may touch
dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquids of any
kind onto the unit. Should spillage occur, unplug the DVD-VCR and have it checked by a technician before use.
17.
SERVICING - Do not attempt to service this DVD-VCR yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to
a dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
18.
DAMAGE REQUIRING SERVICE - Unplug this DVD-VCR 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 any liquid has been spilled onto or objects have fallen into the DVD-VCR.
c.
If the DVD-VCR has been exposed to rain or water.
d. If the DVD-VCR does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls
that are covered by the operating instructions. Improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and
will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the DVD-VCR to its normal operation.
e.
If the DVD-VCR has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.
f.
When the DVD-VCR exhibits a distinct change in performance—this indicates a need for service.
19.
REPLACEMENT PARTS - When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used
replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or those having the same characteristics as the original part.
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or other hazards.
