O U T D O O R A N T E N N AG R O U N D I N GIf an outside antenna or cable system is con-nected to the video unit, be sure the antennaor cable system is grounded to provide someprotection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National

iv DVD+VCR User’s Guide

Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984,provides information with respect to propergrounding of the mast and supporting struc-ture, grounding of the lead-in wire to an an-tenna discharge unit, size of grounding con-ductors, location of antenna-discharge unit,connection to grounding electrodes, and re-quirements for the grounding electrode. Seefigure below.

L I G H T N I N GFor added protection of this video unit dur-ing a lightning storm, or when it is left unat-tended and unused for long periods of time,unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnectthe antenna or cable system. This will pre-vent damage to the video unit due to light-ning and power line surges.

P O W E R L I N E SAn outside antenna system should not be lo-cated in the vicinity of overhead power linesor other electric light or power circuits, whereit can fall into such power lines or circuits.When installing an outside antenna systemextreme care should be taken to keep fromtouching such power lines or circuits as con-tact with them might be fatal.

O V E R L O A D I N GDo not overload wall outlets and extensioncords as this can result in the risk of fire orelectric shock.

O B J E C T S A N D L I Q U I D SNever push objects of any kind into this videounit through openings as they may touch dan-gerous voltage points or short out parts thatcould result in a fire or electric shock. Neverspill liquids of any kind onto the unit. Should

spillage occur, unplug unit and have itchecked by a technician before use.

S E R V I C I N GDo not attempt to service this video unit your-self as opening or removing covers may ex-pose you to a dangerous voltage or otherhazards. Refer all servicing to qualified ser-vice personnel.

D A M A G E R E Q U I R I N G S E R V I C EUnplug this video unit from the wall outletand refer servicing to qualified service per-sonnel under the following conditions:
