presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the
product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude
to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert the user to the presence of important
operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in
the literature accompanying the appliance.
CAUTION:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE
COVER (OR BACK). NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER
SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.

kitchen sink, or laundry tub; in a wet basement; or
near a swimming pool; and the like.
8) Accessories - Do not place this product on an unsta-
ble cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The product
may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult, and
serious damage to the product. Use only with a cart,
stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the
manufacturer, or sold with the product. Any mounting
of the product should follow the manufacturer's
instructions, and should use a mounting accessory
recommended by the manufacturer.
9) A product and cart combination
should be moved with care. Quick
stops, excessive force, and uneven
surfaces may cause the product
and cart combination to overturn.
10) Ventilation - Slots and openings
in the cabinet are provided for
ventilation and to ensure reliable
operation of the product and to
protect it from overheating, and
these openings must not be blocked or covered. The
openings should never be blocked by placing the
product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface.
This product should not be placed in a built-in instal-
lation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ven-
tilation is provided or the manufacturer's instructions
have been adhered to.
11) Power Sources - This product should be operated
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 product dealer or
local power company. For products intended to oper-
ate from battery power, or other sources, refer to the
operating instructions.
12) Grounding or Polarization - This product may be
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.
13) 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 the point where they exit from the product.
14) Lightning - For added protection for this product dur-
ing a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and
unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the
wall outlet. This will prevent damage to the product
due to lightning and power-line surges.
15) Power lines - An outside antenna system should not
be located in the vicinity of overhead 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 cir-
cuits as contact with them might be fatal.
16) Overloading - Do not overload wall outlets, extension
cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this can
result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
17) Object and Liquid Entry - Never push objects of any
kind into this product through openings as they may
touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that
could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liq-
uid of any kind on the product.
18) Servicing - Do not attempt to service this product
yourself as opening or removing covers may expose
you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all
servicing to qualified service personnel.
19) Damage Requiring Service - Unplug this product 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 liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into
the product,
c) If the product has been exposed to rain or water,
d) If the product does not operate normally by follow-
ing the operating instructions. Adjust only those
controls that are covered by the operating instruc-
tions as an improper adjustment of other controls
may result in damage and will often require exten-
sive work by a qualified technician to restore the
product to its normal operation,
e) If the product has been dropped or damaged in
any way.
f) When the product exhibits a distinct change in per-
formance - this indicates a need for service.
20) 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.

repairs to this product, ask the service technician to
perform safety checks to determine that the product
is in proper operating condition.
