Safety Notices
10. Power Sources: This product should be operated only from the type of
power source indicated on the rating label. If you are not sure of the type
of power supply to your home, consult your product dealer or local power
company. For products intended to operate from battery power or other
sources, refer to the operating instructions.
11. Grounding or Polarization: This product may be equipped with a polarized
alternating-current line plug that has one blade wider than the other. This
plug will only fit into the power outlet in one direction. This is a safety fea-
ture. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing
the direction of the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact an electri-
cian to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the
polarized 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 at plugs, convenience recep-
tacles, and at the point which they exit from the product.
13. Protective Attachment Plug: The product may be equipped with an attach-
ment plug with overload protection. This is a safety feature. See the operat-
ing instructions for replacement or directions to reset the protective device.
If replacement of the plug is required, be sure the service technician has
used a replacement plug that has the same overload protection as the origi-
nal plug as specified by the manufacturer.
14. Outdoor Antenna Grounding: If an
outside antenna is connected
to the product, be sure the an-
tenna system is grounded so
as to provide some protec-
tion against voltage surges
and built-up static charges.
Article 810 of the National
Electrical Code, ANS/NFPA
70 provides information with
regard to proper grounding of
the mast and supporting structure,
grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna-discharge unit, size of ground-
ing conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to ground-
ing electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode (see figure).
