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.
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.
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.
IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
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 cleaning.
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
manufacturer’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 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 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, connection to grounding
electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.
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 touching
such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be
fatal.
