13.The monitor should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the label. If you are not sure of the type of power supplied to your home, consult your dealer or local power company.

14.Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.

15.Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

16.The Class I apparatus shall be connected to a mains socket outlet with a protective earthing connection.

17.The mains plug or extension cable must be used to disconnect the device from mains power, and so should be easily accessible.

18.CAUTION – These servicing instructions are for use by qualified service personnel only.To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not perform any servicing other than that contained in the operating instructions unless you are qualified to do so.

19.For use only with Listed Wall Mount Bracket with minimum weight/load: Please see page.26

20.Tilt/Stability – All monitor must comply with recommended international global safety standards for

21.Wall or Ceiling Mounting – The appliance should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.

22.Power Lines – An outdoor antenna should be located away from power lines.

23.Outdoor Antenna Grounding – If an outside antenna is connected to the receiver, be sure the antenna system is grounded to provide some protection against voltage surges and built up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electric Code,ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984, provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mats 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.
