Important Safeguards and Pre cau tions

READ AND RETAIN ALL SAFETY AND
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS. HEED ALL
WARNINGS IN THE MANUAL AND ON UNIT

INSTALLATION

1 POWER SOURCE CAUTION

Operate only from power source indicated on unit or

in this manual. If uncertain, have your Electric Utility
Service Company or Video Products Dealer verify
your home power source.

2 POWER CORD PLUG

For safety, this unit has a polarized type plug (one

wide blade), or a three-wire grounding type plug.
Always hold the plug fi rmly and make sure your hands
are dry when plugging in or unplugging the AC power

cord. Regularly remove dust, dirt, etc. on the plug.
POLARIZED PLUG CAUTION:
The plug fi ts into outlet one way. If it cannot be fully
inserted, try reversing it. If it still will not fi t, have an
electrician install the proper wall outlet. Do not tamper
with the plug.
GROUNDING PLUG CAUTION:
The plug requires a three-hole grounding outlet.
If necessary, have an electrician install the proper outlet.
Do not tamper with the plug.

3 POWER CORD

To avoid unit malfunction, and to protect against

electrical shock, fi re or personal injury:

- Keep power cord away from heating appliances and

walking traffi c. Do not rest heavy objects on, or roll
such objects over the power cord.

- Do not tamper with the cord in any way.

- An extension cord should have the same type plug

(polarized or grounding) and must be securely
connected.

- Overloaded wall outlets or extension cords is a fi re

hazard.

- Frayed cords, damaged plugs, and damaged or

cracked wire insulation are hazardous and should
be replaced by a qualifi ed electrician.

4 DO NOT BLOCK VENTILATION HOLES

Ventilation openings in the cabinet release heat

generated during operation. If blocked, heat

build-up may result in a fi re hazard or heat damage to

cassettes.
For your protection:
a. Never cover ventilation slots while unit is ON, or

operate unit while placed on a bed, sofa, rug, or
other soft surface.

b. Avoid built-in installation, such as a book case or

rack, unless properly ventilated.

5 AVOID EXTREMELY HOT LOCATIONS OR

SUDDEN TEMPERATURE CHANG ES

Do not place unit over or near a heater or ra di a tor, in

di rect sunlight, etc. If unit is sud den ly moved from a

cold place to a warm place, mois ture may condense in

unit and on the tape caus ing damage.

6 TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURY

• Never place unit on support or

stand that is not fi rm, level, and adequately strong.
The unit could fall causing serious injury to a child or
adult and damage to the unit.

• Move any appliance and

cart combination with care.
Quick stops, excessive
force, and uneven
surfaces may cause objects to
overturn.

• Carefully follow all operating

instructions.

OUTDOOR ANTENNA INSTALLATION

1 SAFE ANTENNA AND CABLE CONNECTION

An outside antenna or cable system must be properly grounded to

provide some protection against built up static charges and voltage.
Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 (in Canada,
part 1 of the Canadian Electrical
Code) provides information
regarding 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, con nec tion
to grounding electrodes, and
requirements for the grounding electrode.

2 KEEP ANTENNA CLEAR OF HIGH VOLTAGE POWER LINES OR

CIRCUITS

Locate an outside antenna system well away from power lines and

electric light or power circuits so it will never touch these power sources
should it ever fall. When installing antenna, absolutely never touch power
lines, circuits or other power sources as this could be fatal.

avoid electrical interference.

5 USING ACCESSORIES
Use only accessories recommended by the manufacturer to

avoid risk of fi re, shock, or other hazards.

6 CLEANING UNIT
Unplug unit. Use a clean, dry, chemically untreated cloth to

gently remove dust or debris. DO NOT USE cleaning fl uids,
