Electrical energy can
perform many
useful functions. But
improper use can result in potential electrical shock or fire
hazards. This unit has been engineered and manufactured to
assure your personal safety. In order not to defeat the built-in
safeguards,
observe
the
following
basic
rules
for its
installation, use and servicing.
ATTENTION:
Follow and obey all warnings and instructions marked on your
video product and its operating instructions. For your safety,
please read all the safety and operating instructions before
you operate this unit and keep this operating instruction
manual for future reference.
INSTALLATION
1. Grounding or Polarization
(A) Your video product may be 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.
(B) Your video product may
be equipped with a 3-wire
grounding-type plug, a plug having a third (grounding) pin. This
plug will only fit into a grounding-type power outlet. This is a
safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the
outlet, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet.
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type plug.
2. Power Sources
Operate your unit 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. If your unit is intended to operate from battery
power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.
3. Overloading
Overloaded power outlets and extension cords are dangerous;
so are frayed cords and broken plugs. Any of these may result
in a shock or fire hazard. Call your service technician for
replacement of such cords and plugs. Extension cords or
adaptors that defeat the safety purpose of polarized or 3-wire
grounding-type plug power cords should not be used.
4. 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.
5. Ventilation
Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation.
To ensure reliable operation of the unit and to protect it from
overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered.
@ Do not block the openings by placing the unit on a bed, sofa,
rug or other similar surface.
e Do not place the unit near or over a radiator or heat register.
e Do not place the unit 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.
ANTENNA INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Outdoor Antenna Grounding
If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the
video recorder or tuner, be sure the antenna or cable system is
grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage
surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National
Electrical Code. ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984, provides information
with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting
structure,
grounding
conductors,
location
of antenna
discharge
unit, connection
to grounding
electrodes
and
requirements for the grounding electrode.
2. Power Lines
To avoid the possibility of a fatal electrical shock, outdoor
antennas and lead-in wires should be kept well away from
overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or
from where they can fall onto 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.
