Important Safety Instructions

9. 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 an
adult and serious damage to the product.

10. Ventilation. Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation and
to ensure reliable operation of the unit and to protect from overheating. These
openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be
blocked by placing the unit on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surfaces. This
product should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or
rack unless proper ventilation is provided.

11. Power sources. This product should only be operated from the type of power
source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the power supply
to your home, consult your product dealer or local power company.

12. Grounding or polarization. This product is equipped with a three-wire
grounding-type plug, a plug having a third grounding pin. This plug will only
fit into a grounding type power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable
to insert the plug into the outlet, contact your electrician to replace the
obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type 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. Refer to
Figure A on the following page.

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.

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

18. 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.

19. 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.

20. 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
