At the place of entering the building, before going further to the radio station, the feedline
between the amplifier and tuner input should be equipped with a pulse overvoltage limiter
(surge arrester), the grounding terminal of which should be connected through a
low-impedance connection to the main grounding plate of the building (see Point
Appendix 1).

1.5.3. Electric Safety Precautions

The electronics inside the tuner operate under high direct-current voltage up to 200 V,
which is fatal! Never allow anyone, especially children, to insert any object into box holes
- this may cause electric shock. Disconnect all cables from the tuner and every time wait
at least 1 minute before opening it!
RF voltage at antenna feed point and elements may exceed several thousand volts!
Never touch the antenna or antenna isolators during transmission and tuning - this may
cause deep RF burns as well as indirect traumas, such as falling!

1.5.4. General Safety Precautions

Do not undertake on your own repairs or changes in hardware or software of the tuner in
order not to endanger your or other's health and life and not to damage the tuner and
the equipment connected with it, not covered by warranty. The manufacturer is not liable
for another's actions and responsibility shall be assumed by the doer.
To avoid damage (not covered under warranty) read the Section
User's Manual carefully. If you have any doubts about the installation, operation or safety
of the tuner, please consult your dealer.
