Important Safeguards
1.
Read Instructions -- All the safety and operat-
ing instructions should be read before the appli-
ance is operated.
2.
Retain Instructions -- The safety and operating
instructions should be retained for future refer-
ence.
3.
Heed Warnings -- All warnings on the appli-
ance and in the operating instructions should be
adhered to.
4.
Follow Instructions -- All operating and use
instructions should be followed.
5.
Cleaning -- Unplug the appliance from the wall
outlet before cleaning. The appliance should be
cleaned only as recommended by the manufac-
turer.
6.
Attachments -- Do not use attachments not
recommended by the appliance manufacturer as
they may cause hazards.
7.
Water and Moisture -- Do not use the appli-
ance near water ­for example, near a bath tub,
wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub; in a wet
basement; or near a swimming pool; and the
like.
8.
Accessories -- Do not place the appliance on
an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table.
The appliance may fall, causing serious injury to
a child or adult, and serious damage to the appli-
ance. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket,
or table recommended by the manufacturer, or
sold with the appliance. Any mounting of the
appliance
should
follow
the
manufacturer's
instructions, and should use a mounting acces-
sory recommended by the manufacturer.
9.
An appliance and cart com-
bination should be moved
with
care.
Quick
stops,
excessive force, and uneven
surfaces
may
cause
the
appliance and cart combina-
tion to overturn.
10. Ventilation -- Slots and openings in the cabinet
are provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable
operation of the appliance and to protect it from
overheating, and these openings must not be
blocked or covered. The openings should never
be blocked by placing the appliance on a bed,
sofa, rug, or other similar surface. The appliance
should not be placed in a built-in installation such
as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation
is provided. There should be free space of at
least 20 cm (8 in.) and an opening behind the
appliance.
11. Power Sources -- The appliance should be
operated only from the type of power source indi-
cated on the marking label. If you are not sure of
the type of power supply to your home, consult
your appliance dealer or local power company.
12. Grounding or Polarization -- The appliance
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 receptacles, and the point
where they exit from the appliance.

14. Outdoor Antenna Grounding -- If an outside
antenna or cable system is connected to the
appliance, be sure the antenna or cable system
is grounded so as to provide some protection
against
voltage
surges
and
built-up
static
charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with
regard to proper grounding of the mast and sup-
porting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to
an antenna-discharge unit, size of grounding
conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit,
connection to grounding electrodes, and require-
ments for the grounding electrode. See FIGURE
1.
15. Lightning -- For added protection for the appli-
ance 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 dam-
age to the appliance due to lightning and power-
line surges.
16. Power Lines -- An outside antenna system
should not be located in the vicinity of overhead
power lines or other electric light or power cir-
cuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or
circuits. When installing an outside antenna sys-
tem, extreme care should be taken to keep from
touching such power lines or circuits as contact
with them might be fatal.
17. Overloading -- Do not overload wall outlets,
extension cords, or integral convenience recep-
tacles as this can result in a risk of fire or electric
shock.
18. Object and Liquid Entry -- Never push objects
of any kind into the appliance through openings
as they may touch dangerous voltage points or
short-out parts that could result in a fire or elec-
tric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the
appliance.
19. Servicing -- Do not attempt to service the appli-
ance yourself as opening or removing covers
may expose you to dangerous voltage or other
hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service
personnel.
20. Damage Requiring Service --Unplug the appli-
ance form the wall outlet and refer servicing to
qualified service personnel under the following
conditions:
A. When the power-supply cord or plug is dam-
aged,
B. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have
fallen into the appliance,
C. If the appliance has been exposed to rain or
water,
D. If the appliance does not operate normally by
following the operating instructions. Adjust
only those controls that are covered by the
operating instructions as an improper adjust-
ment of other controls may result in damage
and will often require extensive work by a
qualified technician to restore the appliance
to its normal operation,
E. If the appliance has been dropped or dam-
aged in any way, and
F. When the appliance exhibits a distinct
change in performance -- this indicates a
need for service.
21. Replacement Parts -- When replacement parts
are required, be sure the service technician has
used replacement parts specified by the manu-
facturer or have the same characteristics as the
original part. Unauthorized substitutions may
result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.
22. Safety Check -- Upon completion of any ser-
vice or repairs to the appliance, ask the service
technician to perform safety checks to determine
that the appliance is in proper operation condi-
tion.
23. Wall or Ceiling Mounting -- The appliance
should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as
recommended by the manufacturer.
24. Heat -- The appliance should be situated away
from heat sources such as radiators, heat regis-
ters, stoves, or other appliances (including
amplifiers) that produce heat.
25. Liquid Hazards -- The appliance should not be
exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects
filled with liquids, such as vases should be
placed on the appliance.
