operation of the 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 product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other

11. Power Sources This 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 product
dealer or local power company. For products intended to operate from battery power, or other
sources, refer to the operating instructions.
12. Grounding or Polarization This product may be 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 should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the
safety purpose of the polarized plug.
Alternate Warnings This product is equipped with a three-wire grounding-type plug, a plug having a third
(grounding) pin. This plug will only fit into a grounding-type power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are
unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not
defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type 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 particular attention to cords at plugs,
convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the product.
14. Protective Attachment Plug The product is equipped with an attachment plug having overload
protection. This is a safety feature. See Instruction Manual for replacement or resetting of protective
device. If replacement of the plug is required, be sure the service technician has used a replacement
plug specified by the manufacturer that has the same overload protection as the original plug.
15. 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 structure, grounding of the
lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge
unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.
See Figure 131.1.
16. Lightning For added protection for this product during 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.
17. 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.
18. Overloading Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this
can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
19. 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 a fire or electric shock.
