IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

(Continued from previous page)

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 (U.S.A.), 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.

Example of Grounding According to National

Electrical Code Instructions

Ground Clamp

		Antenna Lead in Wire
		Antenna Discharge Unit
		(NEC Section 810-20)
		Grounding Conductor
Electric Service		(NEC Section 810-21)
Equipment		Ground Clamps
		Power Service Grounding
		Electrode System (NEC
		Art 250, Part H)

NEC - National Electrical Code

15. Lightning

For added protection for this product (receiver) during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning and powerline surges.

Closed caption function

Closed captioning is a process which converts the audio portion of a television program into written words which then appear on the television screen in a form similar to subtitles. Closed captions allow viewers to read the dialogue and narration of television programs.

Using Closed Captions

FOLLOW ME

Caption Tips

Captions are the subtitles of the dialogue and narration of television programs. For prerecorded programs, program dialogue can be arranged into captions in advance. It’s possible to caption a live program by using a process called real-time captioning, which creates captions instantly. Real-time captioning is normally done by professional reporters using a machine shorthand system and computer for translation into English.

Captioning is an effective system for the hearing-impaired, and it can also aid in teaching language skills.

•The picture at left shows a typical caption.

•Not all TV broadcasts include closed caption signals.

•Sometimes TV stations broadcast four different caption signals on the same channel. By selecting FROM CC1 TO CC4, you can choose which signal you view. CC1 is usually the signal with the captions, while Another mode might show demonstration or programming information.

•Your TV might not receive caption signals normally in the following situations.

Poor reception conditions are encountered:

•IGNITION:

Picture may flutter, drift, suffer from black spots or horizontal streaking. Usually caused by interference from automobile ignition systems, neon lamps, electrical drills, and other electrical appliances.

•GHOSTS:

Ghosts are caused when the TV signal splits and follows two paths. One is the direct path and the other is reflected off tall buildings, hills or other objects. Changing the direction or position of the antenna may improve reception.

•SNOW:

If your receiver is located at the weak, fringe area of a TV signal, your picture may be marred by small dots. It may be necessary to install a special antenna to improve the picture.

An old, bad, or illegally recorded tape is played.

Strong, random signals from a car or airplane interfere with the TV signal.

The signal from the antenna is weak.

The program wasn’t captioned when it was produced, transmitted, or taped.
