surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn.
9. 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 opening 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 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 VCR, 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.

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.

a risk of fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the video product.
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
