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) 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.
This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning
and power-line surges.

15) 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.

16) Overloading - Do not overload wall outlets, extension
cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this can
result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

17) 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.

18) Servicing - Do not attempt to service this product yourself
as opening or removing covers may expose you to danger­ous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to quali­fied service personnel.

19) 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 perfor-

mance - this indicates a need for service.

20) 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.

21) 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.

Modulator, and then connect the coaxial output of the RF Modulator (usually marked “TO TV”) to the 75 ohm
coaxial antenna terminal on your TV. Follow the instruction supplied with the RF Modulator for more details.

If your TV’s 75 ohm coaxial antenna terminal is already occupied by an antenna or cable box connection,
remove that cable from your TV’s antenna terminal and reconnect it to the coaxial antenna input terminal
of the RF Modulator (usually marked “ANT IN”), then connect the RF modulator to your TV’s antenna
terminal as described above.
