Important Safety Instructions
14. Outdoor Antenna Grounding 
 If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to 
the product, 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 supporting structure, grounding of the 
lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of 
grounding conductors, location of antennadischarge 
unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and 
requirements for the grounding electrode. See figure 
below.
19. 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.
20. 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.
F)When the product 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 manufacturer 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 service or repairs to this 
product, ask the service technician to perform safety 
checks to determine that the product is in proper 
operating condition.
23. Wall or Ceiling Mounting  
The product should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only 
as recommended by the manufacturer.
24. Heat  
The product should be situated away from heat 
sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or 
other products (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
15. 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 lines 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 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.
17. Overloading  
Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or 
integral convenience receptacles, as this can result in a 
risk of fire or electric shock.
18. 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.
