6. Attachments - Do not use attachments not recommended  
by the video product manufacturer as they may cause  
hazards.  
7. 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.  
14. Lightning - For added protection for this video 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 video product due to lightning  
and power-line surges.  
15. 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.  
16. Overloading - Do not overload wall outlets and extension  
cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.  
17. Object and Liquid Entry - Never push objects of any kind  
into this video product through any openings as they may  
touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that  
could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of  
any kind on the video product.  
18. Servicing - Do not attempt to service this video product  
yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you  
to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing  
to qualified service personnel.  
8. Accessories - Do not place this video product on an  
unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The video  
product 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 recommended by the  
manufacturer, or sold with the video product. Any mount-  
ing of the appliance should follow the  
manufacturer's instructions and should  
use a mounting accessory recommended  
by the manufacturer. An appliance and  
cart combination should be moved with  
care. Quick stops, excessive force, and  
uneven surfaces may cause the appli-  
ance and cart combination to overturn.  
9. Ventilation - Slots and openings in the cabinet are pro-  
vided 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 installa-  
tion such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation  
is provided or the manufacturer's instructions have been  
adhered to.  
19. Damage Requiring Service - Unplug this video product  
from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service  
personnel under the following conditions:  
a. When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged.  
b. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the  
video product.  
10. 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 appliance dealer or  
local power company. For products intended to operate  
from battery power, or other sources, refer to the  
operating instructions.  
c. If the video product has been exposed to rain or water.  
d. If the video product does not operate normally by  
following the operating instructions. Adjust only those  
controls that are covered by the operating instructions  
as an improper adjustment of other controls may result  
in damage and will often require extensive work by a  
qualified technician to restore the video product to its  
normal operation.  
11. 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 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.  
12. 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 recep-  
tacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance.  
1ꢀ. Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna or  
cable system is connected to the video 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 No. 70, provides information with regard to proper  
e. If the video product has been dropped or damaged in  
any way.  
f. When the video product exhibits a distinct change in  
performance this indicates a need for service.  
20. Replacement Parts - When replacement parts are  
required, be sure the service technician has used  
replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or have  
the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized  
substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or other  
hazards.  
21. Safety Check - Upon completion of any service or repairs  
to this video product, ask the service technician to per-  
form safety checks to determine that the video product is  
in proper operating condition.  
22. Heat - This video product should be situated away from  
heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or  
other products (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
