Safety Instructions
16. 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 eliminate touching power lines or circuits as contact might be fatal.
17. Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of
fire or electric shock.
18. Never push objects of any kind into this product through openings as they may touch short-out parts or
dangerous voltage points that could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the
product.
19. If an outside antenna is connected to the
television
equipment, 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
Electrical Code 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 electrodes.
20. NOTE TO CABLE/TV INSTALLER: This reminder is
provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention
to Article 820-40 of the National Electric Code (U.S.A.).
The code 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 the cable entry as practical.
21. When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician uses replacement parts specified by the
manufacturer or those that have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may
result in fire, electric shock or other hazards.
22. Upon completion of any service or repairs to this unit, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to
determine that the unit is in proper operating condition.
23. When you connect the product to other equipment, turn off the power and unplug from the wall outlet. Failure
to do so may cause an electric shock and serious personal injury. Rea
d the owner’s manual of the other
equipment carefully and follow the instructions when making any connections.
24. Sudden high volume may cause hearing or speaker damage. When you use headphones (if the unit is
equipped with a headphone jack), keep the volume at a moderate level. If you use headphones continuously
with high volume, you may suffer hearing damage.
25. Do not allow the product to output distorted sound for extended periods of time. This may cause speaker
overheating and fire.
26. The socket-outlet must be installed near the unit and easily accessible.
27. The main plug is used as the disconnect and shall remain readily operable.
28. Batteries (battery pack or batteries installed) shall not be
exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or
the like.
CONDENSATION
Moisture will form in the operating section of the unit if the unit is brought from cool surroundings into a warm
room or if the temperature of the room rises suddenly. When this happens the unit’s performance will be impaired.
To prevent this, let the unit stand in its new surroundings for about an hour before switching on, or make sure the
room temperature rises gradually.
Condensation may also form during the summer if the unit is exposed to the breeze from an air conditioner. In such
cases, change the location of the unit.
