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.Follow Instructions - All operating and use instructions
should be followed.
5.Cleaning - Unplug unit from the wall outlet before cleaning.
Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp
cloth for cleaning.
EXCEPTION: A product that is meant for uninterrupted
service and, that for some specific reason, such as the possibility of the loss of an authorization code for a CATV converter, is not intended to be unplugged by the user for cleaning or any other purpose, may exclude the reference to
unplugging the appliance in the cleaning description otherwise required in item 5.
6.Attachments - Do not use attachments not recommended by
the unit manufacturer as they may cause hazards.
7.Water and Moisture - Do not use this unit near water-for
example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, and
the like.
8.Accessories - Do not place this unit on an unstable cart,
stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The unit may fall, causing
serious injury to someone, and serious damage to the appliance. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table
recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with the unit.
Any mounting of the appliance
should follow the manufacturer’s
instructions and should use a mounting accessory recommended by the
manufacturer. 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.
AMEUBLES - Cet appareil ne doit être
placé que sur un meuble (avec ou sans
roulettes) recommandé par le fabricant.
Si vous l’installez sur un meuble à
roulettes, déplacez les deux ensembles
avec précaution. Un arrêt brusque, l’utilisation d’une force excessive et des surfaces irrégulières
risquent de déstabiliser l’ensemble et de le renverser.
9. Ventilation - Slots and openings in the cabinet and the
back or bottom are provided for ventilation and to ensure
reliable operation of the unit and to protect it from overheating, and these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the
unit on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This unit
should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. This unit should not be placed in a built-in installation
such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer’s instructions have been adhered
to.
10.Power Sources - This unit 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
units intended to operate from battery power, or other
sources, refer to the operating instructions.
11.Grounding or Polarization - This unit 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.Outdoor Antenna grounding - If an outside antenna or
cable system is connected to the unit, 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 unit 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 unit 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 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.
18.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.
19.Damage Requiring Service - Unplug this unit 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
unit.
c. If the unit has been exposed to rain or water.
d. If the unit does not operate normally by following the oper-
ating 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 unit to its normal operation.
e. If the unit has been dropped or damaged in any way.
f. When the unit exhibits a distinct change in performance,
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 characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may
result in fire, electric shock, injury to persons or other hazards.
21.Safety Check - Upon completion of any service or repairs
to this unit, ask the service technician to perform routine
safety checks to determine that the unit is in proper operating condition.
22.Heat - This unit product should be situated away from heat
sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other
products (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

RADIO-TV INTERFERENCE
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference to
radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
1) Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
2) Increase the separation between the equipment
and receiver.
3) Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
4) Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.
