your appliance dealer or local power company. For units intended to operate
from battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.
11. GROUNDING OR POLARIZATION
This unit is 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, if your unit is equipped with a 3-wire grounding-type plug, a plug having a
third (grounding) pin. This plug will only fit into a grounding-type power outlet.

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.

dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in fire or electric
shock. Never spill or spray any type of liquid into the unit.

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.
CONDENSATION
Moisture will form in the operating section of the DVD/VCR if the player is
brought from cool surroundings into a warm room or if the temperature of
the room rises suddenly. When this happens, the DVD/VCR's performance
will be impaired.
To prevent this, let the DVD/VCR stand in its new surroundings for about an
hour before switching it on, or make sure that the room temperature rises
gradually.
Condensation may also form during the summer if the DVD/VCR is exposed
to the breeze from an air conditioner. In such cases, change the location of
the DVD/VCR.
