Important Safeguards

For your protection, please read these safety instructions com-
pletely before operating the appliance, and keep this manual for
future reference.
Carefully observe all warnings, precautions and instructions
on the appliance, or the one described in the Instruction
Manual and adhere to them.
USE
Power Sources
This set should be operated only from the type of power source
indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of
electrical power supplied to your home, consult your dealer or
local power company. For those sets designed to operate from
battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating instruc-
tions.
Grounding or Polarization
The set is equipped with a polarized AC power cord plug (a plug
having one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the
power outlet only one way. This is 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
have a suitable outlet installed. Do not defeat the safety purpose
of the polarized plug by forcing it in.
Overloading
Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords or convenience
receptacles beyond their capacity, since this can result in fire or
electric shock.
Object and Liquid Entry
Never push objects of any kind into the set 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 set.
Attachments
Do not use attachments not recommended by the manufacturer,
as they may cause hazards.
US
Cleaning
Unplug the set from the wall outlet before cleaning or polishing
it. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a cloth
lightly dampened with water for cleaning the exterior of the set.
INSTALLATION
Water and Moisture
Do not use powerline operated sets near water – for example,
near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet
basement, or near a swimming pool, etc.
Power-Cord Protection
Route the power cord so that it is not likely to be walked on or
pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular
attention to the plugs, receptacles, and the point where the cord
exits from the appliance.
Ventilation
The slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for necessary
ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the set, and to protect
it from overheating, these slots and openings must never be
blocked or covered.
– Never cover the slots and openings with a cloth or other
materials.
– Never block the slots and openings by placing the set on a bed,
sofa, rug or other similar surface.
Accessories
Do not place the set on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or
table. The set may fall, causing serious injury to a child or an
adult, and serious damage to the set. Use only a cart stand tripod,
bracket, or table 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.
