10. Ventilation - Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation 

to ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it from overheating. 

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 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 and connected to a MAINS socket outlet 

with a protective earthing connection. If you are not sure of the type of power 

supply to your home, consult your product dealer or local power company. 

12. 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 product. 

13. Mains Plug - Where the mains plug or an appliance coupler is used as the 

disconnect device, the disconnect device shall remain readily operable.

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 antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and 

requirements for the grounding electrode. 

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Section 

820-40 of the NEC which provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, 

specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the 

building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical. 

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-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 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. Flame Sources - No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be 

placed on the product.

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. Headphones - Excessive sound pressure form earphones and headphones can 

cause hearing loss.

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. 
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
