3. LIGHTNING
T
o protect your product from 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.
14. 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.
15. OVERLOADING
Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as
this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
16. 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 fire or electric shock.
Never spill or spray any type of liquid on the product.
17. OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING
If an outside antenna is connected to the product,
be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to
provide some protection against voltage surges and
built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National
Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information
with respect to proper grounding of the mast and
supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire
to an antenna discharge product, size of grounding
conductors, location of antenna discharge product,
connection to grounding electrodes and
requirements for grounding electrodes.
18. SERVICING
D
o not attempt to service this product yourself as
opening or removing covers may expose you to
d
angerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all

hen replacement parts are required, be sure the
s
ervice technician uses replacement parts specified
b
y the manufacturer or those that have the same
characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized
substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or
other hazards.

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 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 the cabinet
has been damaged.
f. When the product exhibits a distinct change in
performance–this indicates a need for service.
23. HEAT

sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or
other products (including amplifiers) that produce
heat.
24. NOTE TO CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system
installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that
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.
