washbowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub; in a wet basement; or near a
swimming pool.

8. ACCESSORIES

table. The product may fall, causing serious injury and serious damage to
the product. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket or table
recommended by the manufacturer or sold with the
product. Any mounting of the product should follow the
manufacturer’s instructions, and should use a mounting
accessory recommended by the manufacturer.

8A. 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.

9. VENTILATION
Slots and openings in the cabinet and in the back or bottom are
provided for ventilation, to ensure reliable operation of the product and
to protect it from overheating. These openings must not be blocked or
covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the
producton a bed, sofa, rug or other similar surface. This product
should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat source. This
product shouldnot be placed in a built-in installation such as a
bookcase or rackunless proper ventilation is provided or the
manufacturer's instructionshave been adhered to.

10. POWER SOURCES
This product should be operated only from the type of power source
indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power
supply to your home, consult your appliance dealer or local power
company. For products intended to operate from battery power, or
other sources, refer to the operating instructions.

11. GROUNDING OR POLARIZATION
This product is 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.

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

13. LIGHTNING
To protect your product from 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 antenna or cable system. This will prevent
damage to the product due to lightning and power-line surges.

14. POWER LINES
An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of
overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it
can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside
antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching
such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

15. OVERLOADING
Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in a
risk of fire or electric shock.

16. OBJECT AND LIQUID ENTRY
Never push objects of any kind into this product through openings as they
may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in
fire or electric shock. Never spill or spray any type of liquid on the product.

17. OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING
Ifan outside antenna is connected to the product, 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 Electric
Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with respect to proper
grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in
wire to an antenna discharge product, size of grounding conductors,
location of antenna discharge product, connection to grounding
electrodes and requirements for grounding electrodes.
