Experience and knowledge of certain techniques are required for work relating to antennas and television reception. Contact the retailer that you purchased the antenna from or a business that provides this service when required. Do not affix any label on, paint, or cover the Smart Antenna Unit and elements. Do not install the antenna in locations such as the following: · Near power lines, neon signs, overhead wires and telephone wires · Where the construction is not solid, the ground is soft, it is rickety, or it vibrates · Where the antenna may impede the passage of people or vehicles · Near a chimney or where the temperature becomes high Do not conduct installation work when the weather is bad due to strong wind, rain, snow, fog or other conditions. This can cause injury resulting from the product falling or being toppled. Do not conduct installation work when there are poor footholds including an unstable position. This can cause injury resulting from falling or slipping. As electric currents flow through the coaxial cable that is connected to the antenna, do not nick, bend forcefully, put anything heavy on, or heat the coaxial cable. This can cause fire or an electric shock. Do not tamper with the interior of the antenna by opening the case or disassembling the antenna. This can cause an electric shock or injury. For inspection, adjustment or repair of the interior, contact a retailer or a business that provides this service. Do not stand on the antenna or installation devices or hang on them. This can cause damage or injury resulting from the product falling or being toppled. Caution is especially required in households with a child. Do not touch the antenna or cables when there is lightning. This can cause an electric shock. Do not drop components of the antenna or tools from a high position. This can cause injury. Firmly secure screws and bolts used for assembly or installation by tightening them with the specified torque if it is provided. Failure to do so can cause injury resulting from the product falling or being toppled. Do not conduct any maintenance work such as inspection of the antenna or installation devices when the weather is bad due to wind, rain, thunder, lightning, snow or other conditions. This is dangerous and can cause injury resulting from the product falling or being toppled. ATTENTION: FUNAI CORPORATION RESERVES THE RIGHT TO MODIFY ANY DESIGN OF THIS PRODUCT WITHOUT PRIOR NOTICE.
