built-up static charges. Ar ticle 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANS/NFPA 70 provides information with regard to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, ground-
ing 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 (see gure).
Lightning: For added protection for this product, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect
16.
the antenna or cable system during a lightning storm or when it is left unattended and unused
for long periods of time. This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning or power-line surges.
Power Lines: An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead
17. 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.

18.
cles as this can result in a risk of re or electric shock.
Object and Liquid Entry: Never push objects of any kind into this product through openings
19.
as they may touch dangerous voltage points or shout-out parts that could result in a re or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.
Servicing: Do not attempt to service this product yourself as opening or removing covers may
20.
expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualied service
personnel.
Damage Requiring Service: Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer servicing to
21.
qualied service personnel under the following conditions: a) when the power-supply or plug is damaged; b) if liquid has been spilled or if 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.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
distinct change in performance —this indicates a need for service.
Replacement Parts: When replacement parts are required, be sure that your service techni-
22.
cian has used replacement par ts specied by the manufacturer or have the same charac­teristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in re, electric shock, or other hazards.
Safety Check: Upon completion of any service or repairs to this product, ask the service tech-
23.
nician to per form safety checks to ensure that the product is in proper operating condition.
Wall or Ceiling Mounting: The product should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recom-
