Medidas de seguridad y precauciones importantes

PARA REDUCIR EL RIESGO DE GOLPES ELÉCTRICOS, INCENDIOS, HERIDAS O DAÑOS A ESTE
PRODUCTO, LEA Y GUARDE TODAS LAS INSTRUCCIONES DE SEGURIDAD Y FUNCIONAMIENTO.
TENGA EN CUENTA TODAS LAS ADVERTENCIAS INDICADAS EN EL MANUAL Y EN EL PRODUCTO.

1 PRECAUCIÓN CON LA FUENTE DE ALIMENTACIÓN

El equipo solo debe hacerse funcionar desde una fuente
de a limentación que se indique en la unidad o en este
manual. Si fuera necesario, haga revisar la fuente de
alimentación de su hogar por parte de la Compañia de
Suministro Eléctrico o por parte de su Distribuidor de
Productos de Vídeo.

2 CONECTOR POLARIZADO O CON TOMA A TIERRA

Como característica de seguridad, este producto de
vídeo viene equipado con un enchufe de cable de
alimentación polarizado (solo una pata es más ancha que
la otra), o con un enchufe del tipo con toma a tierra de

tres patas.
PRECAUCIÓN CON EL ENCHUFE POLARIZADO
Este enchufe sólo entrará en la toma en un sentido.

vuelta. Si aún así no entrara, llame a un técnico electricista
para que le instale una toma de red adecuada. No desactive
esta función de seguridad manipulando el enchufe de
ninguna manera.

PRECAUCIÓN CON ENCHUFES CON TOMA A TIERRA
Este enchufe sólo entrará en una toma con conexión a tierra

de tres orificios.
Si fuera necesario, que un técnico electricista le instale la
toma de red adecuada. No desactive esta función de
seguridad manipulando el enchufe de ninguna manera.

3 CABLE DE ALIMENTACIÓN

Asegúrese de que los cables de alimentación son

dispuestos de tal forma que no se apoye nada sobre

ellos, no ruede nada sobre ellos, o que estén en el paso

de tráfico al caminar.

Si se utilizara un cable alargador, asegúrese de que

también disponga de un enchufe polarizado o con toma a

tierra y de que puede conectarse firmemente.

Los cables pelados, los enchufes averiados o hilos

quebrados constituyen un peligro y deben ser

reemplazados por un técnico cualificado del servicio

técnico. Las tomas eléctricas de la red general

sobrecargadas y los cables de extensión constituyen

riesgos de incendio y han de evitarse en lo posible.

4 NO BLOQUEE LOS ORIFICIOS DE VENTILACIÓN

Las aberturas de ventilación del mueble liberan el calor

generado durante el funcionamiento de la unidad.

Si se bloquearan, el calor acumulado dentro de la unidad

podría ocasionar fallos que pueden llevar a riesgos de

incendio o daños por calor en las cassettes utilizadas.

5 EVITE UBICACIONES MUY CALIENTES O SOMETIDA A

CAMBIOS BRUSCOS DE TEMPERATURA

No coloque la unidad encima o cerca de cual quier tipo

de calefactor o regulador, bajo la luz solar directa, dentro

de vehículos, etc…

No traslade la unidad súbitamente entre sitios con

variaciones extremas de temparatura. Si la unidad es

llevada bruscamente de un sitio frío a otro cálido, la

humedad puede condensarse en la unidad y en la cinta.

6 PARA EVITAR LESIONES PERSONALES

• No coloque equipos no fijados en
superficies inclinadas.

• No coloque esta unidad sobre ningún
soporte que no esté firme, nivelado y
que sea adecuadamente fuerte.
La unidad podría caerse y producir
graves lesiones a niños o adultos y
dañarse la unidad misma.

• La combinación de aparato y carrito
debe moverse con cuidado. Las paradas súbitas, una
fuerza excesiva ya las superficies irregulares pueden
ocasionar el vuelco de la combinación de aparato y
carrito.

• Siga atentamente las instrucciones de funcionamiento y
utilice los accesorios recomendados por el fabricante al
hacer funcionar esta unidad o al conectaria a otros
equipos.

Este símbolo advierte al usuario de que hay voltaje sin aislamiento dentro de la unidad de
suficiente magnitud como para ocasionar sacudidas eléctricas. Por lo tanto, resultará peligroso
realizar cualquier tipo de contacto con toda pieza interna de la unidad.

Este símbolo alerta al usuario de que se ha incluido importante literatura sobre el funcionamiento
y mantenimiento de esta unidad. Por tanto, debe leerse atentamente tal literatura a fin de evitar
cualquier problema.

- 11 -

INSTALACIÓN DE LA ANTENA EXTERIOR

Si se conectara una antena exterior o sistema de cable
conectado al equido, el usuario
deberá asegurarse de que la
antena o el sistema de cable
disponen de toma a tierra como
forma de proporcinar protección
contra la acumulación de cargas
estábicas y saltos de corrientes.
La sección 810 del Código
Eléctrico Nacional, ANSI/NFPA 70 (en
Canadá, la parte 1 del Código Eléctrico Canadiense)
proporciona información con respecto a la conexión a tierra
correcta del mástil y la estructura de soporte, conexión a tierra
de los cables de bajada de antena a una unidad de descarga,
tamaño de los conductores a tierra, ubicación de la unidad de
descarga de antena, conexión de los electrodos a tierra y
requisitos del electrodo de toma a tierra.

DE ALTO VOLTAJE

Un sistema de antena exterior deberá ser colocado bien alejado
de líneas de alimentación, luz eléctrica o circuitos de alimentación
para que nunca esté en contacto con tales fuentes de
alimentación si se cayera. Al instalar una antena exterior, debe
tenerse muchísimo cuidado para evitar las líneas de alimentación,
circuitos u otras fuentes de alimentación ya que esto podría
resultar mortal. Debido a los riesgos implicados en la instalación
de una antena, tal operación debe dejarse a un profesional.

UTILIZACIÓN DE LA UNIDAD DE VÍDEO

DE HUMEDAD DE CUALQUIER TIPO

FUERTES IMPACTOS, desenchufe la unidad y que sea revisada

por un técnico cualificado antes de volver a utilizarla.

Durante una tormenta con rayos, tanto en interiores como en el
exterior, o antes de dejar la unidad sin utilizar durante largos
períodos de tiempo, desconecte todos los equipos de la fuente
de alimentación así como la antena y el sistema de cableado.

•No exponga nunca la unidad a la lluvia o el agua. NO LA HAGA
FUNCIONAR si se ha derramado líquido dentro de la unidad.
Desenchufe la unida inmediatamente ya que sea revisada por un
técnico. Pueden producirse incendios o sacudidas eléctricas
derivadas de cortocircuitos eléctricos causados por el contacto de
líquidos con el interior de la unidad.

•No deje caer ni introduzca ningún objeto por las aberturas de la
unidad. Algunas piezas internas tienen un voltaje peligroso y el
contacto con ellas puede producir sacudidas eléctricas o incendios.

•Evite colocar la unidad directamente encima o debajo del televisor,
ya que esto prodría causar interferencias eléctricas. Mantenga
cualquier tipo de imán alejados de equipos electrónicos.

Utilice sólo accesorios recomendados por el fabricante para así
evitar riesgos de incendio, sacudidas eléctricas y otros peligros.

Desenchufe la unidad. Luego utilice un paño limpio y seco, sin
tratamiento químico para quitar suavemente el polvo o suciedad.
NO UTILICE productos de limpieza, aerosoles, o aire comprimido que
pudieran causar un exceso de pulverización o introducirse en la
unidad y ocasionar sacudidas eléctricas. Caulquier substancia,
como cera, cinta adhesiva, etc., podría arruinar el acabado de la
superficie. La exposición a substancias grasosas, áreas húmedas o
polvorientas puede afectar de manera adversa a las piezas intemas.

SERVICIO TÉCNICO POR SÍ MISMO

Si, después de observar atentamente las detalladas instrucciones de
funcionamiento, este producto de vídeo no funcionara correctamente,
no intente abrir o extraer las tapas, o realizar cualquier ajuste no
indicado en este manual. Desenchufe la unidad y llévela a un técnico
cualificado de servicio técnico.

Asegúrese de que el técnico de servicio utiliza sólo piezas
especificadas por el fabricante, o de las mismas características que
las piezas originales. La utilización de subsitutos no autorizados
puede ser causa de incendios, sacudidas eléctricas, u otros peligros.

COMPROBACIÓN DE SEGURIDAD

Después de cualquier servicio o reparación de la unidad, solicite
al técnico de servicio que realice una completa comprobación de
seguridad tal como se describe en la literatura de servicio técnico
del fabricante para asegurarse así que la unidad de vídeo se
encuentra en condiciones de funcionamiento seguras.

THIS PRODUCT, READ AND RETAIN ALL SAFETY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS. HEED ALL
WARNINGS IN THE MANUAL AND ON THE PRODUCT.

1 POWER SOURCE CAUTION

Operate only from a power source indicated on the unit
or in this manual. If necessary, have your Electric Utility
Service Company or Video Products Dealer verify the
power source in your home.

2 POLARIZED OR GROUNDING PLUG

As a safety feature, this Video product comes with
either a polarized power cord plug (one blade is wider

than the other), or a three-wire grounding type plug.
POLARIZED PLUG CAUTION:
This plug will only fit into an outlet one way. If you cannot
fully insert the plug, try reversing it. If it still will not fit,
have an electrician install the proper wall outlet. Do not
defeat the safety feature by tampering with the plug.
GROUNDING PLUG CAUTION:
This plug will only fit into a three-hole grounding outlet.
If necessary, have an electrician install the proper outlet.
Do not defeat the safety feature by tampering with the plug.

3 POWER CORD

Make sure power cords are routed so that they are not

likely to have anything rest on them, roll over them, or

be in the way of walking traffic. If an extension cord is

used, make sure it also has either a polarized or

grounded plug and that the cords can be securely

connected. Frayed cords, damaged plugs, and damaged

or cracked wire insulation are hazardous and should be

replaced by a qualified service technician.

Overloaded outlets and extension cords are fire hazards

and should be avoided.

4 DO NOT BLOCK VENTILATION HOLES

Ventilation openings in the cabinet release heat

generated during operation. If they are blocked, heat

build-up inside the unit can cause failures that may

result in a fire hazard or heat damage to cassettes.

For protection, follow these rules:

a. Never cover ventilation slots or the unit while in use,

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

5 AVOID EXTREMELY HOT LOCATIONS OR SUDDEN

TEMPERATURE CHANGES

Do not place the unit over or near any kind of heater or

radiator, in direct sunlight, inside a closed vehicle, etc..

Do not move the unit suddenly between areas of

extreme temperature variation. If the unit is suddenly

moved from a cold place to a warm place, moisture may

condense in the unit and on the tape.

6 TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURY

• Do not place unsecured equipment on a
sloping surface.

• Do not place this unit on any support
that is not firm, level, and adequately
strong. The unit could fall causing
serious injury to a child or adult and
damage to the unit.

• 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.

• Carefully follow all operating instructions and use the
manufacturer's recommended accessories when
operating this unit or connecting it to any other
equipment.

Safety Precautions/Mesures de sécurité

To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose this equipment to rain or moisture.

To prevent electric shock, match wide blade of plug to wide slot, fully insert.

1 SAFE ANTENNA AND CABLE CONNECTION

If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the
equipment, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded
so as to provide some protection against built up static
charges and voltage surges.
Section 810 of the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 (in
Canada, part 1 of the Canadian
Electrical Code) 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.

2

KEEP ANTENNA CLEAR OF HIGH VOLTAGE POWER LINES OR CIRCUITS

An outside antenna system should be located well away from
power lines, electric light or power circuits and where it will never
come into contact with these power sources if it should happen
to fall. When installing an outside antenna, extreme care should
be taken to avoid touching power lines, circuits or other power
sources as this could be fatal. Because of the hazards involved,
antenna installation should be left to a professional.

If the unit has been in storage or moved to a new location, refer
first to the INSTALLATION section of these safeguards.

1 KEEP THIS VIDEO UNIT AWAY FROM WATER OR

MOISTURE OF ANY KIND.

2 IF EQUIPMENT IS EXPOSED TO RAIN, MOISTURE, OR

STRONG IMPACT, unplug the unit and have it inspected by

a qualified service technician before use.

3 DURING AN ELECTRICAL STORM

During a lightning storm, whether indoors or outdoors, or
before leaving the unit unused for extended periods of time,
disconnect all equipment from the power source as well as
the antenna and cable system.

4 WHEN THE UNIT IS PLUGGED IN

• Never expose the unit to rain or water. DO NOT OPERATE

• Never drop or push any object through openings in the

• Avoid placing the unit directly above or below your TV set

5 USING ACCESSORIES

Use only accessories recommended by the manufacturer to
avoid risk of fire, shock, or other hazards.

6 CLEANING THE UNIT

Unplug the unit. Then, use a clean, dry, chemically untreated cloth
to gently remove dust or debris. DO NOT USE cleaning fluids,
aerosols, or forced air that could over-spray, or seep into the unit
and cause electrical shock. Any substance such as wax,
adhesive tape, etc. may mar the cabinet surface. Exposure to
greasy, humid, or dusty areas may adversely affect internal parts.

1 DO NOT SERVICE THIS PRODUCT YOURSELF

If, after carefully following the detailed operating
instructions, this Video product does not operate properly,
do not attempt to open or remove covers, or make any
adjustments not described in the manual. Unplug the unit
and contact a qualified service technician.

2 IF REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE REQUIRED

Make sure the service technician uses only parts specified by
the manufacturer, or those having the same safety
characteristics as the original parts. The use of unauthorized
substitutes may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.

3 HAVE THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN PERFORM A SAFETY CHECK

After any service or repairs to the unit, request the service
technician to conduct a thorough safety check as described
in the manufacture’s service literature to ensure that the
video unit is in safe operating condition.
