electric shock, do not expose this unit to rain or moisture. Do not open the unit. Refer servicing to
qualified personnel only.
CAUTION: TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, MATCH WIDE BLADE OF PLUG TO
WIDE SLOT, FULLY INSERT. To prevent electric shock, do not use this (polarized) plug with an
extension cord receptacle or other outlet unless the blades can be fully inserted to prevent blade exposure.
Ligh t ning Flash Icon. The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an
equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of un-insulated “dangerous
voltage” within the product’s housing that may be strong enough to constitute a risk of
electric shock to persons.
Exclamation Point Icon. The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing)
instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A/Class B (whichever is applicable) limits
for rad io noise emissions from digital apparatus as set out in the Radio Interference
Regulations of the Canadia n D epartment of Communi cations .
Read, Follow and Keep Inst ructions. Before you operate the unit, read and
follow all of the safety and operating instructions. Keep the safety and operating instructions
for fut u re re ferenc e .
Heed W arning. Pay attention to all warnings on the equipment and in the operating
instructions.
Cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaner s. Use a damp cloth to clean the
outside of the unit. Do not open the unit for cleaning or any other reason.
Power Cord Protection. Place po wer suppl y cords so that they are not walked on or
pinched by items placed on or against them. Pay particular attention to the cords where they
join the plug, near convenience receptacles, and where they exit from the equipment.
Power Sources/Grounding. Operate the equipment from the type of power source
indicated on the marking label. This product has a polarized alternating-current line plug as a
safety feature. This plug fits into the power outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit,
contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not try to change the plu g o r d efeat
its safety purpose.
Ventilation. Do not block or cover the slots and openings of the unit. They provide
ventilation and protect it from overheating. Never place the unit on carpeting, which it may
block ventilation through the bottom slots. Never place the unit near a source of heat or in a
built-in installation rack unless there is proper ventilation. Do not place near heat sources such
as radiators, sto ves, or other produc ts (including amplifiers) that produc e heat.

accessory recommended by the manufacturer. Do not place this product direct ly on wood or
simulated wood surfaces because these surfaces may be damaged.
Power Lines. Do not locate the satellite antenna system near overhead power lines,
electrical light or power circuits, or where it can fall into power lines or circuits. When
installing a satellite antenna system, avoid dangerous contact with power lines or circuits.
Outdoor Antenna Grounding. To provide some protection against voltage surges,
lightning, and built-up static charges, make sure that the satellite antenna is properly grounded.
Outdoor Cable Protection. Protect all outdoor connections from m oisture. D ur ing
installation, treat all o f the cable connectors on your LNB with coax seal, even if the connecti on
is installed under a weatherproof cover. Intern al heating can draw moisture or condensati on
into the covering of the unit and affect its operation. Do not use silicone seal because it has
a tendency to form air pockets.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Lightning. To pro tect the product from damage caused by ligh tning and power line surge s,
unplug it f rom the wall outlet and disconne c t it from t he antenna or cable system befor e a
lightning storm or if the unit will be left unattended or unused for a long period of time. Once a
storm passes, reconnect all antenna cables to the correct connectors. If you live in an area that
has many lightning storms, buy polariz ed surge protect ors and surge protectors for the power
line, telephone line, and RF cable to protect your system from damage. Never attempt to
connect or disconnect any wire s during a thunderst orm or lightning sto rm.
Note to the syste m installer:
The purpose of this reminder is to call your attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides
guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifi es that the cable ground shall be connected to the
grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical. The illustration is an
example of antenna grounding according to the National Electrical Code Section 810, "Radio and
Television Equipment." Chec k your loca l building a nd electr ical codes f or other r e stricti ons on antenna
grounding.
1.For the ground wire, use No. 10 AWG (5.3mm2) copper, No. 8 AWG (8.4mm2) aluminum, No. 17
AWG (1.0mm2) copper-clad steel or bronze wire, or larger.
2.Secure the antenna lead-in
wire an d ground wires to the
house with stand-off
insulators spaced 4 ft.
(1.22mm) to 6 ft. (1.83m m)
apart.
3.Mount the antenna di scharge
unit as close as possible to
the place where the lead-in
enters the house.
4.Use a jumper wire that is no
smaller than No. 6 AWG
(13.3mm2) copper, or the
equiv alent, whe n using a
separate antenna groundi ng
electrode. See NEC Section
810-21(1).
5.In areas that are heavily prone to lightning storms install a lightning rod mounted to the top of the
antenn a on t he back s ide . Ins ta ll a grou nd strap (2 AWG, or larger , of cop per wir e) fro m the l igh tni ng
rod to the rest of the antenna ground system.
6.Sec tion 810 of the National Elect r ical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984, prov ides infor mation about
the following items:
- Proper grounding of the mast and supporting struc ture.
- Grounding of the lead-in wire to the antenna discharge unit.
- Size of grounding conductors.
- Location of antenna-discharge un it.
- Con ne c ti o n t o gr ou nding elec tro de s.
