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.

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 replacement 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 protection 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 supporting
structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an
antenna-discharge unit, size of grounding conduc-
tors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection
to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the ground-
ing electrode (see figure).
