1B15

13.Outdoor Antenna grounding-If an outside antenna or

cable system is connected to the TV/VCR/DVD, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70, 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. (Fig. A)

14.Lightning-For added protection for this TV/VCR/DVD

receiver 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 antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the TV/VCR/DVD due to lightning and power-line surges.

15.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.

16.Overloading-Do not overload wall outlets and extension

cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

17.Object and Liquid Entry-Never push objects of any kind

into this TV/VCR/DVD 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 TV/VCR/DVD.

18.Servicing-Do not attempt to service this TV/VCR/DVD

yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

19.Damage Requiring Service-Unplug this TV/VCR/DVD

from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service

personnel under the following conditions: a. When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged or frayed. b. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the

TV/VCR/DVD. c. If the TV/VCR/DVD has been exposed to rain or water. d. If the TV/VCR/DVD does not operate normally by follow-

ing the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls

that are covered by the operating instructions, as improper

adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will

often require extensive work by a qualified technician to

restore the TV/VCR/DVD to its normal operation. e. If the TV/VCR/DVD has been dropped or damaged in any

way. f. When the TV/VCR/DVD exhibits a distinct change in per-

formance-this indicates a need for service.

20.Replacement Parts-When replacement parts are required,

be sure the service technician has used replacement parts

specified by the manufacturer that have the same character-

istics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may

result in fire, electric shock, injury to persons or other haz-

ards.

21.Safety Check-Upon completion of any service or repairs to

this TV/VCR/DVD, ask the service technician to perform

routine safety checks to determine that the TV/VCR/DVD

is in proper operating condition.

22.Heat-This TV/VCR/DVD product should be situated away

from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves,

or other products (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
