3. Heed Warnings — All warnings on the appliance and in
the operating instructions should be adhered to.

4. Follow Instructions — All operating and use instructions
should be followed.

5. Water and Moisture — The appliance should not be used
near water — for example, near a bathtub, wash-bowl,
kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a

6. Carts and Stands — The appliance should be used only
with a cart or stand that is recommended by the manufac­turer.

7. An appliance and cart combination should be moved with
care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces
may cause the appliance and cart combination to over­turn.

8. Wall or Ceiling Mounting — The appliance should be
mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the
manufacturer.

9. Ventilation — The appliance should be situated so that its
location or position does not interfere with its proper ven­tilation. For example, the appliance should not be situ­ated on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface that may block
the ventilation openings; or, placed in a built-in installa­tion, such as a bookcase or cabinet that may impede the
flow of air through the ventilation openings.

10. Heat — The appliance should be situated away from heat
sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or
other appliances (including amplifiers) that produce
heat.

11. Power Sources — The appliance should be connected to
a power supply only of the type described in the operating
instructions or as marked on the appliance.

12. Grounding or Polarization — The precautions that should
be taken so that the grounding or polarization means of an
appliance is not defeated.

AC 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 appliance.

14. Cleaning — The appliance should be cleaned only as rec­ommended by the manufacturer.

15. Power Lines— An outdoor antenna should be located
away from power lines.

16. Outdoor Antenna Grounding — If an outside antenna is
connected to the receiver, 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, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984, 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-discharge unit, connection to
grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding
electrode. See Fig. 1.

17. Nonuse Periods — The power cord of the appliance
should be unplugged from the outlet when left unused for
a long period of time.

18. Object and Liquid Entry — Care should be taken so that
objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclo­sure through openings.

19. Damage Requiring Service — The appliance should be
serviced by qualified service personnel when:

A. The power-supply cord or the plug has been damaged;

or

B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has spilled into the appli-

ance; or
C. The appliance has been exposed to rain; or
D. The appliance does not appear to operate normally or

exhibits a marked change in performance; or
