IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
In addition to the careful attention devoted to
quality standards in the manufacture of your
video product, safety is a major factor in the
design of every instrument. However, safety is
your responsibility too.
This sheet lists important information that will
help to assure your enjoyment and proper use of
the video product and accessory equipment.
Please read it carefully before operating and
using your video product.

4 Polarization—This video 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
unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try
reversing the plug. If the plug still fails to fit,
contact your electrician to replace your obsolete
outlet. To prevent electric shock, do not use this
polarized plug with an extension cord, recep-
tacle, or other outlet unless the blades can be
fully inserted without blade exposure. If you
need an extension cord, use a polarized cord.
5 Power Sources—This video product
should be operated only from the type of power
source indicated on the marking label. If you are
not sure of the type of power supply to your
home, consult your video dealer or local power
company. For video products intended to
operate from battery power, or other sources,
refer to the operating instructions.
6 Overloading—Do not overload wall
outlets or extension cords as this can result in a
risk of fire or electric shock. Overloaded AC
outlets, extension cords, frayed power cords,
damaged or cracked wire insulation, and broken
plugs are dangerous. They may result in a shock
or fire hazard. Periodically examine the cord,
and if its appearance indicates damage or
deteriorated insulation, have it replaced by your
service technician.
7 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 video product.

of the video product and to protect it from overheat-
ing. These openings must not be blocked or covered.
The openings should never be blocked by placing the

surface. This video product should never be placed
near or over a radiator or heat register. This video
product should not be placed in a built-in installation

turer as they may cause hazards.
