WARNING / CAUTION

To prevent fire or shock hazards, do not expose this product to rain or moisture.

Class B digital device This equipment has been tested and found to com-

ply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pur-

suant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against

harmful interference in a residential installation. This

equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio fre- quency energy and, if not installed and used in

accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful

interference to radio communications. However,

there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment

does cause harmful interference to radio or televi- sion reception, which can be determined by turning

the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of

the following measures:

- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

- Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is con-

nected.

- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance

could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the National

Electric Code (U.S.A.). The code provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the

cable ground shall be connected to the grounding sys- tem of the building, as close to the point of the cable

entry as practical.

Do not attempt to modify this product in any way

without written authorization from LG Electronics.

Unauthorized modification could void the user's

authority to operate this product

with such power lines or circuits as death or serious injury can occur.

Be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage

surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code

(NEC) in the U.S.A. provides information with respect 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 dis- charge unit, connection to grounding electrodes
