CAUTION:

Read all of these Instructions.

Save these Instructions for later use.

Follow all Warnings and Instructions marked on the audio
equipment.

1) Read Instructions

 — All the safety and operating instructions should

be read before the product is operated.

2) Retain Instructions 

— The safety and operating instructions should

be retained for future reference.

3) Heed Warnings

 — All warnings on the product and in the operating

instructions should be adhered to.

4) Follow Instructions

 — All operating and use instructions should be

followed.

5) Cleaning

 — Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning.

Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for clean-
ing.

6) Attachments

 — Do not use attachments not recommended by the

product manufacturer as they may cause hazards.

7) Water and Moisture

 — Do not use this product near water — for

example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub; in a wet
basement; or near a swimming pool; and the like.

8) Accessories

 — Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand,

tripod, bracket, or table. The product may fall, causing serious injury to a
child or adult, and serious damage to the product. Use only with a cart,
stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the manufacturer, or sold
with the product. Any mounting of the product should follow the manufac-
turer’s instructions, and should use a mounting accessory recommended by
the manufacturer.

9)

 A product and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops,

excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the product and cart com-
bination to overturn.

10)

 

Ventilation

 — Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ven-

tilation 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 ventilation 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 alternating-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 particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the product.

14) Outdoor Antenna Grounding

 — 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, con-
nection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding elec-
trode.

"Note to CATV system installer:

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to
Section 820-40 of the NEC which provides guidelines for proper grounding
and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the
grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as
practical.

15) 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 outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system.
This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning and power-line
surges.

16) 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 touch-
ing such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

17) Overloading

 — Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or

integral convenience receptacles as this can result in risk of fire or electric
shock.

18) Object and Liquid Entry

 — 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.

19) Servicing

 — Do not attempt to service this product yourself as open-

ing or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other
hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

20) Damage Requiring Service

 — Unplug this product 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 liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the product.

c)

if the product has been exposed to rain or water.

d)

if the product does not operate normally by 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.

e)

if the product has been dropped or damaged in any way.

f )

when the product exhibits a distinct change in performance – this

indicates a need for service.

21) Replacement Parts

 — When replacement  parts are required, be

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

22) 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.

23) Wall or Ceiling Mounting

 — The product should be mounted to a

wall or ceiling only  as recommended by the manufacturer.

24) Heat 

— The product should be situated away from heat sources such

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