14. Outdoor Antenna Grounding – If an out-
side 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 requirements 
for the grounding electrode. See Figure 1.
15. Lightning – For added protection for the 
appliance 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 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 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 out-
lets, extension cords, or integral conve-
nience 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 the appliance 
through openings as they may touch dan-
gerous voltage points or short-out parts 
that could result in a fire or electric shock. 
Never spill liquid of any kind on the appli-
ance.
19. Servicing – Do not attempt to service the 
appliance yourself as opening or remov-
ing covers may expose you to dangerous 
voltage or other hazards. Refer all servic-
ing to qualified service personnel.
20. Damage Requiring Service – Unplug the 
appliance form 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 appliance, 
C. If the appliance has been exposed to 
rain or water, 
D. If the appliance does not operate nor-
mally by following the operating 
instructions. Adjust only those con-
trols 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 
appliance to its normal operation,
E. If the appliance has been dropped or 
damaged 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 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 the appliance, ask the 
service technician to perform safety 
checks to determine that the appliance is 
in proper operation condition.
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 registers, stoves, or other appliances 
(including amplifiers) that produce heat.
