Lightning protection
For added protection of any Gateway product during a lightning storm or when it is left
unattended or unused for long periods of time, unplug the product from the wall outlet and
disconnect the antenna or cable system.
Power lines
Do not locate the antenna near overhead light or power circuits, or where it could fall into such
power lines or circuits.
Warning
When installing or realigning an outside antenna system, extreme care
should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits. Contact
with them could be fatal.
