A Consumer Guide to Product Safety
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This unit has been designed and manufactur
ed to assure your personal safety. Improper use can result in potential electrical shock or fire hazards.
Please read all the safety and operating instructions carefully before installation and use. Keep these instructions handy for future reference. Take
special note, adhere to all warning, and always follow the instructions on the unit and in the instruction and service manuals.
1. Water and Moisture – The unit should not be used near water. For example: near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, swimming
pool or in a wet basement.
2. Ventilation – The unit should be situated so that its location or position does not interfere with it’s proper ventilation. For example, it should
not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug or similar surface that may block ventilation openings. Also, it should not be placed in a built-in installation,
such as a bookcase or cabinet that may impede the flow of air through the ventilation openings.
3. Heat – The unit should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other appliances (including amplifiers)
that produce heat.
4. Power Sources – The unit should be connected to a power supply only of the type described in the operating instructions or as marked
on the appliance itself.
5. Grounding or Polarization – This product is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug. (a plug having one blade wider than
the other) As a safety feature this plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. If you are unable to fit the plug fully into the outlet, try
reversing the plug. If the plug still fails to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the
polarized plug by forcing the plug into the outlet.
6. 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. It is always best to have a clear area from where the cord exits the unit to where it is plugged into an AC outlet.
7. Cleaning – Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for
cleaning.
8. Non-Use Periods – The power cord of the unit should be unplugged from the outlet when it is to be left unused for a long period of time.

11. Lightning – For added protection for this product during a lighting 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.

shock.

A. The power supply cord or plug has been damaged.
B. Objects have fallen into or liquid has been spilled into the enclosure.
