This product was designed and manufactured to meet strict quality and safety standards.
There are, however, some installation and operation precautions which you should be
particularly aware of.
1.
Read Instructions - All the safety and operating instructions should be read
before the appliance is operated.
2.
Retain Instructions - The safety and operating instructions should be retained
for future reference.
3.
Heed Warnings - All warnings on the appliance and in the operating instructions
should be adhered to.
4.

or in a wet basement.
6.
Carts and Stands - The appliance should be used only with a cart or stand that
is recommended by the manufacturer.
6A.
7.
Wall or Ceiling Mounting - The appliance should be mounted to a wall or
ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.
8.
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.
9.
Heat - The appliance should be situated away from heat sources such as
radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances (including amplifiers) that
produce heat.
10.
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.
Grounding or Polarization - Precautions should be taken so that the grounding-
11.
or polarization means of an appliance is not defeated.
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.
CAUTION : To prevent electric shock, match the
wide blade of this plug to the wide slot and fully insert.
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.
AC
Polarized 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. Cleaning - The appliance should be cleaned only as recommended by the
manufacturer.
14. Power Lines - An outdoor antenna should be located away from power lines.
15. 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
connectors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding
electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode. See Figure below.
16. Nonuse Periods - The power cord of the appliance should be unplugged from the
outlet when left unused for a long period of time.
17. Object and Liquid Entry - Care should be taken so that objects do not fall and
liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through openings.
18. 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 appliance; 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
E. The appliance has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged.
19. Servicing - The user should not attempt to service the appliance beyond that
described in the operating instructions. All other servicing should be referred to
qualified service personnel.
SAFETY INSTRUCTtONS
Note to the CATV system installer
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular,

Safety Information
Before operating the system, check that the operating
voltage indicated on the typeplate (or the voltage
indication beside the voltage selector) of your system
is identical with the voltage of your local power
supply. If not, please consult your dealer. The type
plate is located at the rear of your system.
When the system is switched on, do not move it
around.
Place the system on a solid base (e.g. a cabinet).
Place the system in a location with adequate
ventilation to prevent internal heat build-up in your
system.
The system incorporates a built-in safety feature that
prevents over heating (for model FW560C only).
Do not expose the system to excessive moisture, rain,
sand or heat sources.
Under no circumstances should you repair the system
yourself, as this will invalidate the warranty!
If the system is brought directly from a cold to a warm
location, or is placed in a very damp room, moisture
may condense on the lens of the CD unit inside the
system. Should this occur, the CD player will not
operate normally. Leave the power on for about one
hour with no disc in the system until normal playback
is possible.
Electrostatic discharge may cause unexpected
problems. See whether these problems disappear if
you unplug the AC power cord and plug it in again
after a few seconds.
To disconnect the system from the power supply
completely, remove the AC power plug from the
wall socket.
