the grounding electrode. See Figure 1.

15. Lightning-For added protection for this video 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 video product due
to lightning and power-line surges.

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 and extension
cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

i

18. Object and Liquid Entry-Never push objects of any kind into
this video 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 video 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 video 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

video product.

c. If the video product has been exposed to rain or water.
d. If the video 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 video product to its normal operation.

e. If the video product has been dropped or the cabinet has

been damaged.

f. When the video product exhibits a distinct change in

performance-this indicates a need for service.

21. 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.

22. Safety Check-Upon completion of any service or repairs to
this video product, ask the service technician to perform
safety checks to determine that the video product is in
proper operating condition.

23. Carts and Stands-The appliance should be used only with

ABOUT THE WOW

WOW is a proprietary new algorithm from SRS Labs, which
processes a stereo signal to provide extraordinary
enhancement to the listening experience. Ordinary stereo
present a rather limited spatial presentation, and often lack­luster bass (low frequency) performance. Any sound system
including smaller multimedia speakers, headphones, mini
stereos, portable “boom boxes” or televisions can deliver an
audio performance with dramatically improved image size,
dynamics and immersion when playing a signal processed with
WOW. The procession of the spatial cues surrounds the
listener with a holographic representation of the performance.
In addition, TruBass builds upon WOW by providing bass that is
deep, rich and controlled, through means that don’t require a
large speaker or cabinet.
