Outdoor Antenna Grounding – If an outside antenna is
connected to this unit, be sure the antenna 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 70, provides
information with regard 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.
Note to 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, specifies that the cable ground shall be
connected to the grounding system of the building, as
close to the point of cable entry as practical.

CAUTION : READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR UNIT.
English
1 To assure the finest performance, please read this manual
carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future reference.
2 Install this unit in a cool, dry, clean place – away from
windows, heat sources, sources of excessive vibration,
dust, moisture and cold. Avoid sources of humming
(transformers, motors). To prevent fire or electrical shock,
do not expose the unit to rain or water.
3 Do not operate the unit upside-down. It may overheat,
possibly causing damage.
4 Never open the cabinet. If something drops into the set,
contact your dealer.
5 The openings on the cabinet assure proper ventilation of
the unit. If these openings are obstructed, the
temperature inside the cabinet will rise rapidly. Therefore,
avoid placing objects against these openings, and install
the unit in well-ventilated condition. Make sure to allow a
space of at least 10 cm behind, on the both sides and
above the top panel of the unit. Otherwise it may not only
damage the unit, but also cause fire.
6 Do not use force on switches, controls or connection
wires. When moving the unit, first disconnect the power
plug and the wires connected to other equipment. Never
pull the wires themselves.
7 Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical solvents;
this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.
8 Always set the VOLUME control to “–
the audio source play. Increase the volume gradually to
an appropriate level after the play back has been started.
