Power Sources: This video product
should be operated only from the type
of power source indicated on the mark-
ing label. If you are not sure of the type
of power supply to your home, consult
your appliance dealer or local power
company. For video products intended
to operate from battery power, or other
sources, refer to the operating instruc-
tions.
Grounding or 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 t 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 should still fail to t, contact
your electrician to replace your obso-
lete outlet. Do not defeat the safety
purpose of the polarized plug.
Alternate Warnings: This video product is
equipped with a 3-wire grounding-type
plug, a plug having a third (grounding)
pin. This plug will only t into a ground-
ing-type power outlet. This is a safety
feature. If you are unable to insert the
plug into the outlet, contact your elec-
trician to replace your obsolete outlet.
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the
grounding-type plug.
Overloading: Do not overload wall out-
lets and extension cords as this can re-
sult in a risk of re or electric shock.
Ventilation: Slots and openings in the
cabinet are provided for ventilation
and to ensure reliable operation of the
video product and to protect it from
overheating, and these openings must
not be blocked or covered.
The openings should never be blocked
by placing the video product on a bed,
sofa, rug, or other similar surface.
This video product should not be
placed in a built-in installation such as a
bookcase or rack unless proper ventila-
tion is provided or the manufacturer’s
instructions have been adhered to.
This video product should never be
placed near or over a radiator or heat
register.
Attachments: Do not use attachments
not recommended by the video prod-
uct manufacturer as they may cause
hazards.
Water and Moisture: Do not use this video
product near water – for example, near
a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or
laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near
a swimming pool, and the like.
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 ap-
pliance.
Accessories: Do not place this video
product on an unstable cart, stand, tri-
pod, bracket, or table. The video prod-
uct may fall, causing serious injury to a
child or adult, and serious damage to
the appliance. Use only with a cart,
stand, tripod, bracket, or table recom-
mended by the manufacturer, or sold
with the video product. Any mounting
of the appliance should follow the
manufacturer’s instructions, and should
use a mounting accessory recommend-
ed by the manufacturer.
An appliance and
cart combination
should be moved
with care. Quick
stops, excessive
force, and uneven
surfaces may cause
the appliance and cart combination to
overturn.

Outdoor Antenna Grounding: If an outside
antenna or cable system is connected
to the video product, be sure the anten-
na or cable system is grounded so as to
provide some protection against volt-
age surges and built-up static charges.
Section 810 of the National Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70, provides
information with respect to proper
grounding of the mast and support-
ing structure, grounding of the lead-in
wire to an antennadischarge unit, size
of grounding conductors, location of
antenna-discharge unit, connection
to grounding electrodes, and require-
ments for the grounding electrode.
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.
