SAFETY INFORMATION (cont.)
In addition to the Important Safety Instructions, please read the Safety
Information below.

Power sources

The model number, serial number, and electrical rating of this set-top are on
a label on its base.
You must operate your set-top 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 dealer or local power company. If you move your
set-top between locations at different temperatures, allow it to reach room
temperature before you apply power to it.
Overloading
Do not overload wall AC outlets, extension cords or other power outlets as
this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
Lightning
For added protection for your set-top during a lightning storm, or when
it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, disconnect the
cable system from your set-top. See also item 13 in the Important Safety
Instructions.
Ambient temperature
The operating temperature range of your set-top is 32-104°F. If the ambient
temperature around your set-top falls outside this range, you must correct
this in order for your set-top to work correctly and safely. For example, if the
4
temperature is too high, make sure there is sufficient ventilation (see below)
and that your set-top is not directly on top of or underneath other equipment.
Ventilation
Slots and openings in the casing of your set-top are provided for ventilation,
to ensure reliable operation of your set-top and to protect it from overheating.
• Never block the ventilation openings by placing your set-top on a bed,
sofa, rug, or other similar surface. Place it on a hard, flat surface.
• Never cover the ventilation openings with items such as newspapers,
table-cloths, or curtains.
• You can place your set-top near other consumer electronics devices, such
as stereo amplifiers or televisions, but you must not place it directly on
top or underneath them.
• Do not place your set-top in a built-
in installation such as a bookcase
or rack unless proper ventilation is
provided and you have adhered to
the manufacturer' s instructions.
• Maintain a minimum
distance of three inches
around your set-top for
sufficient ventilation.
