IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS In addition to the careful attention devoted to quality standards in the manufacture of your video product, safety is a major factor in the design of every instrument. However, safety is your responsibility, too. This sheet lists important information that will help to assure your enjoyment and proper use of the video product and accessory equipment. Please read them carefully before operation and use of your video product. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Read these instructions carefully. Keep these instructions for future reference. Heed all warnings and follow all instructions. Do not expose to water or moisture. Clean only with a dry cloth. This device should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the rating label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your video dealer or local power company. For devices intended to operate from battery power or other sources, refer to the operating instructions. Do not overload wall outlets or extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock. Overloaded AC outlets, extension cords, frayed power cords, damaged or cracked wire insulation, and broken plugs are dangerous. They may result in a shock or fire hazard. Examine the cord periodically, and if its appearance indicates damage or deteriorated insulation, have it replaced by a service technician. Do not force the power plug into a wall outlet. If the plug provided does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet. (A polarized plug has two blades where one is wider than the other; the wide blade is provided for your safety.) Do not place heavy objects on the power cord. Protect the cord from being walked on, pinched by objects, or torn and exposed to liquids (especially at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point at which they exit from the device). Do not use this device near water. Do not place objects filled with liquids (eg, vases) on the device. Never spill liquid of any kind on the device. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. Do not drop or otherwise subject the device to impact. Keep objects away from ventilation openings. Do not block ventilation openings at any time. 11. Never push objects of any kind into this device through openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. 12. Do not install near any apparatus that produces heat such as stoves, radiators, amplifiers, etc. 13. Use only with attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer. Use of attachments/ accessories not recommended by the product manufacturer may be hazardous. 14. Do not place this device on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table.

Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the device and cart combination to overturn. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 16. If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the device, 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 (Section 54 of Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1) provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode. 17. An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines, 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 or approaching such power lines or circuits, as contact with them might be fatal. Installing an outdoor antenna can be hazardous and should be left to a professional antenna installer. 18. Note to CATV System Installer: This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer's attention to Section 820-40 of the National Electric Code which provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building as close to the point of cable entry as practical. 19. Unplug the device during lightning storms. Unplug the device and remove any batteries when the device will be unused for long periods of time. 20. Do not open or attempt to repair this device. Refer all repairs to authorized service personnel. 21.
