Important Safeguards

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
ENGLISH
11. GROUNDING OR POLARIZATION - This unit may be 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. Alternately, this unit may be equipped with a 3-wire grounding-type plug, having a third (grounding) pin.
This plug will only fit into a grounding-type power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the
plug into the outlet, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of
the grounding-type 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 and plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance.
13. POWER LINES - An outdoor 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 outdoor
system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them
might be fatal. U.S.A models only - refer to the National Electrical Code Article 820 regarding installation of
CATV systems.
14. OVERLOADING - Do not overload outlets and extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric
shock.
15. OBJECT AND LIQUID ENTRY - Do not 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.
16. 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.
17. DAMAGE REQUIRING SERVICE - Unplug the 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.
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 operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are
covered by the operating instructions, as an 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 the cabinet has been damaged.
f. When the unit exhibits a distinct change in performance - this indicates a need for service.
18. REPLACEMENT PARTS - When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician uses replacement
parts specified by the manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions
may result in fire, electric shock or other hazards.
19. SAFETY CHECK - 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.
20. COAX GROUNDING - If an outside cable system is connected to the unit, be sure the cable system is
grounded. U.S.A models only - Section 810 of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA No.70-1981, provides
information with respect to proper grounding of the mount and supporting structure, grounding of the coax to a
discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes and
requirements for the grounding electrode.
21. LIGHTNING - For added protection of this unit during a lightning storm or when it is left unattended and unused
for long period of time, unplug power cord from the wall.
Polarized Attachment Plug Marking - for CNL use only.
