may cause the appliance and cart combination to 
overturn.
See figure:
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 
installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper 
ventilation is provided or the manufacturer’s instruction 
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 operate from 
battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating 
instruction.
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 
polarizes plug.
 
Alternate Warnings - This product is equipped with a 
three-wire grounding-type plug, a plug having a third 
(grounding) pin. This plug 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.
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 point where they exit from the product.
14.  Protective Attachment Plug - The product is equipped 
with an attachment plug having overload protection. 
This is a safety feature. See Instruction Manual for 
replacement or resetting of protective device. If 
replacement of the plug is required, be sure the service 
technician has used a replacement plug specified by the 
manufacturer that has the same overload protection as 
the original plug.
15.  Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna 
is connected to the receiver, be sure the antenna 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 supporting structure, grounding of the mast and 
supporting 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 requirements for the 
grounding electrode.
See figure:
16.  Lightning - For added protection for this product 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 product due to lightning and 
power-line surges. 
17.  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 circuits as contact 
with them might be fatal.
18.  Overloading - Do not overload wall outlets, extension 
cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this can 
result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
19.  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 liquid 
of any kind on the product.
20.  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.
21.  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 
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 product to its normal 
operation.
 
e)  If the product has been dropped or damaged in any 
way, and
 
f)  When the product exhibits a distinct change in 
performance - this indicates a need for service.
22.  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.
23.  Safety Check - Upon completion of any service or 
repairs to this product, ask the service technician to 
perform safety checks to determine that the product is in 
proper operating condition.
24.  Wall or Ceiling Mounting - The product should be 
mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by 
the manufacturer.
25.  Heat - The product should be situated away from heat 
sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or 
other products (including amplifiers) that produce heat.  
Battery shall not be exposed to excessive heat such as 
sunshine, fire, or the like.
26.  Main plug is used as disconnect device and it should 
remain readily operable during intended use.  In order 
to disconnect the apparatus from the mains completely, 
the mains plug should be disconnected from the mains 
socket outlet completely.
27.  Excessive sound pressure from earphones and 
headphones can cause hearing loss.
