tions, and should use a mount-
ing accessory recommended
by the manufacturer.
9 A product and cart combina-
tion should be moved with
care. Quick stops, excessive
force, and un-
even surfaces
may cause the
product and cart
combination to
overturn.
10 Ventilation
Slots and openings in the cabi-
net are provided for ventilation
and to ensure reliable opera-
tion of the product and to pro-
tect it from overheating, and
these openings must not be
blocked or covered. The open-
ings should never be blocked
by placing the product on a
bed, sofa, rug, or other similar

not be placed in a built-in in-
stallation such as a bookcase
or rack unless proper ventila-
tion is provided or the
manufacturer’s instructions
have been adhered to.
11 Power Sources
This product should be oper-
ated only from the type of
power source indicated on the
marking label. If you are not
sure of the type of power sup-
ply to your home, consult your
product dealer or local power
company. For products in-
tended to operate from battery
power, or other sources, refer
to the operating instructions.
12 Grounding or Polarization
This product is equipped with
a polarized alternating-current
line plug (a plug having one
blade wider than the other).
This plug will fit into the power
outlet only one way. This is a
safety feature. If you are un-
able to insert the plug fully into
the outlet, try reversing the
plug. If the plug should still fail
to fit, contact your electrician to
replace your obsolete outlet.
Do not defeat the safety pur-
pose of the polarized plug.
13 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 par-
ticular attention to cords at
plugs, convenience recep-
tacles, and the point where
they exit from the product.
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 struc-
ture, grounding of the lead-in
wire to an antenna discharge
unit, size of grounding conduc-
tors, location of antenna-dis-
charge unit, connection to
grounding electrodes, and re-
quirements for the grounding
electrode.
15 Lightning
For added protection for this
product during a lightning
storm, or when it is left unat-
tended and unused for long pe-
riods 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.
