the type of power supply you plan to use, consult your appliance
dealer or local power company. For units intended to operate from
battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.

11. Grounding or Polarization - This unit may be equipped with a polar­ized alternating-current line plug (a plug having one blade wider
than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way.
This is a safety feature . If you are unable to insert the plug fully into
the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit,
contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not de­feat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.

14. Overloading - Do not overload outlets and extension cords as this
can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

15. Object and Liquid Entry - Never push objects of any kind into this
unit 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 unit.

16. Servicing - Do not attempt to service this unit yourself as opening or
removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other
hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mount
and supporting structure, grounding of the coax to a discharge unit,
size of grounding conductors, location of discharge unit, connection
to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding elec­trode.

21. Lightning - For added protection of this unit 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 cable system. This
will prevent damage to the unit due to lightning and power-line surges.

Alternately, this unit may be equipped with a 3-wire grounding type
plug, a plug having a third (grounding) pin. This plug will only fit into
a grounding-type power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are
unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact your electrician to
replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of
the grounding-type plug.

12. 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 and plugs,
convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the
appliance.

13. Po wer Lines - An outdoor system should not be located in the vicin­ity of overhead pow er lines or other electric light or power circuits, or
where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an
outdoor system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touch­ing such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.
