Grounding or Polarization: This product may be equipped with a polarized alternating-current line plug that has one
blade wider than the other. This plug will only fit into the power outlet in one direction. This is a safety feature. If you
are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the direction of the plug. If the plug should still fail to
fit, contact an electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized 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
at the point which they exit from the product.
14.
Protective Attachment Plug: The product may be equipped with an attachment plug with overload protection. This is
a safety feature. See the operating instructions for replacement or directions to reset the protective device. If replace-
ment of the plug is required, be sure the service technician has used
a replacement plug that has the same overload protection as
the original plug as specified by the manufacturer.
15.
Outdoor Antenna Grounding: If an outside antenna
is connected to the product, be sure the antenna
system is grounded so as to provide some pro-
tection against voltage surges and built-up static
charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical
Code, ANS/NFPA 70 provides information with
regard to proper grounding of the mast and sup-
porting 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 require-
ments for the grounding electrode (see figure).
16.
Overloading: Do not overload wall outlets, extension
cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this can result in
a risk of fire or electric shock.
