1) Read Instructions—All the safety and operating

instructions should be read before the unit is operated.

2) Retain Instructions—The safety and operating

instructions should be retained for future reference.

3) Heed Warnings—All warnings on the unit and in the

operating instructions should be adhered to.

4) Follow Instructions—All operating and maintenance

instructions should be followed.

5) Cleaning—Unplug this video unit from the wall outlet

before cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.

Use a dry cloth for cleaning.

6) Attachments—Do not use attachments not

recommended by the video product manufacturer as

they may be hazardous.

7) Water and Moisture—Do not use this video 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 video unit on an

unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The video

unit may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult,

and serious damage to the unit. Use only with a cart,

stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the

manufacturer, or sold with the video unit. Any mounting

of the unit 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.

9) Ventilation—Slots and

openings in the cabinet are

provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation

of the video unit and to protect it from overheating.

These openings must not be blocked or covered. Never

place the video unit on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar

surface, or near or over a radiator or heat register. This

video 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 video 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 video units intended to be operated from

battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating

instructions.

11) Grounding or Polarization—This video unit may be

equipped with either a polarized 2-wire AC (Alternating

Current) line plug (a plug having one blade wider than

the other) or 3-wire grounding type plug, a plug having a

third (grounding) pin.

The 2-wire polarized 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 still fails to fit, contact your electrician to

replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety

purpose of the polarized plug.

The 3-wire grounding type plug will 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 of plugs, convenience

receptacles, and the point where they exit from the unit.

13) Outdoor Antenna Grounding—If an outside antenna or

cable system is connected to the video unit, be sure the

antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide

some protection against voltage surges and built-up

static charges. Part 1 of the Canadian Electrical Code, in

USA 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 electrode.

14) Lightning—For added protection of this video 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 video 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.
