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 ventilation is provided or the manufacturer's instructions have been adhered to.
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.
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 receptacles, and the point where they
exit from the appliance.
13. 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
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.

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
