IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Alternate warnings
This equipment may be equipped with a 3-wire grounding-type plug, a plug having a third (grounding)
pin. This pin will only fit into a grounding-type power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to
insert the plug into the outlet, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the
safety purpose of the grounding-type plug.
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 receptacles, and
the point where they exit from the appliance.
Outdoor Antenna Grounding
If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the equipment, be sure the antenna or cable
system is grounded as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges.
Lightning
For added protection for this equipment during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and
unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable
system. This will prevent damage to the video product due to lightning and power line surges.
Power lines
An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines 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 may be fatal.
Overloading
Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electrical shock.
Object and liquid entry
Never push objects of any kind into this equipment through openings as they may touch dangerous
voltage points or short-out parts that could result in a fire or electrical shock. Never spill liquid of any kind
on the product.
Servicing
Do not attempt to service this equipment yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to
dangerous voltage or other hazards, refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
Damage requiring service
Unplug this equipment from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the
following conditions:
a
When the power supply cord or plug is damaged.
b
If the equipment has been exposed to rain or water.
c
If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the equipment.
d
If the equipment does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only
those controls that are covered by the operating instructions as an improper adjustment of
other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified
technician to restore the equipment to its normal operation.
e
If the equipment has been dropped or cabinet has been damaged.
f
When the equipment exhibits a distinct change in performance, indicating a need for service.
Replacement parts
When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts
specified by the manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized
substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.
