206-36524IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS(Continued from previous page)14. Outdoor Antenna GroundingIf an outside antenna or cable system is con-nected to the product, be sure the antenna orcable system is grounded so as to provide someprotection against voltage surges and built-upstatic charges. Article 810 of the NationalElectrical Code (U.S.A.), ANSI/ NFPA 70 pro-vides information with regard to proper ground-ing of the mast and supporting structure,grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna dis-charge unit, size of grounding conductors, loca-tion of antenna-discharge unit, connection togrounding electrodes, and requirements for thegrounding electrode.15. LightningFor added protection for this product (receiver)during a lightning storm, or when it is left unat-tended and unused for long periods of time,unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect theantenna or cable system. This will prevent dam-age to the product due to lightning and power-line surges.16. Power LinesAn outside antenna system should not be locat-ed in the vicinity of overhead power lines orother electric light or power circuits, or where itcan fall into such power lines or circuits. Wheninstalling an outside antenna system, extremecare should be taken to keep from touchingsuch power lines or circuits as contact with themmight be fatal.17. OverloadingDo not overload wall outlets and extensioncords as this can result in a risk of fire or electricshock.18. Object and Liquid EntryNever push objects of any kind into this productthrough openings as they may touch dangerousvoltage points or short-out parts that could resultin a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid ofany kind on the product.19. ServicingDo not attempt to service this product yourselfas opening or removing covers may expose youto dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer allservicing to qualified service personnel.20. Damage Requiring ServiceUnplug this product from the wall outlet andrefer servicing to qualified service personnelunder the following conditions:a. If the power-supply cord or plug is damaged.b. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fall-en into the product.c. If the product has been exposed to rain orwater.d. If the product does not operate normally byfollowing the operating instructions. Adjust onlythose controls that are covered by the operatinginstructions as an improper adjustment of othercontrols may result in damage and will oftenrequire extensive work by a qualified technicianto restore the product to its normal operation.e. If the product has been dropped or the cabi-net has been damaged.f. If the product exhibits a distinct change inperformance.21. Replacement PartsWhen replacement parts are required, be surethe service technician has used replacementparts specified by the manufacturer or have thesame characteristics as the original part.Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire,electric shock, or other hazards.22.
