For added protection for this unit receiver during a lightning  
storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods  
of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna  
or cable system. This will prevent damage to the unit due to  
lightning and powerline surges.  
Outdoor Antenna  
Power lines - An outside antenna system should not be located  
in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other 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 such power lines  
or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.  
Maintenance  
Cleaning - Unplug this unit from the wall outlet before cleaning.  
Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp  
cloth for cleaning.  
En  
Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna or cable  
system is connected to the unit, 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, 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 conductors, location of  
antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes,  
and requirements for the grounding electrode. See the figure.

qualified service personnel under the following conditions:  
- When the power cord or plug is damaged.  
- If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the unit.  
- If the unit has been exposed to rain or water.  
- If the unit does not operate normally by following the operating  
instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by  
the operating instructions as improper adjustment of other  
controls may result in damage and will often require extensive  
work by a qualified technician to restore the unit to normal  
operation.

NOTE  
REMARQUE  
CAUTION  
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with  
the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of  
the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide  
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a  
residential installation.  
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio  
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance  
with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio  
communications. However, there is no guarantee that  
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this  
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or  
television reception, which can be determined by turning the  
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct  
the interference by one or more of the following measures:  
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.  
Cet appareil a été testé et jugé conforme aux normes des  
appareils numériques de Classe B, conformément au chapitre  
15 du règlement FCC. Ces normes sont conçues pour assurer  
une protection raisonnable contre les interférences  
radioélectriques lorsque l’appareil est utilisé dans un  
environnement résidentiel.  
Cet appareil génère, utilise et peut émettre des radiofréquences  
et, s’il n’est pas installé et utilisé conformément au mode  
d’emploi, il peut provoquer des interférences dans les  
communications radio. II n’est cependant pas possible de  
garantir que des interférences ne se produiront pas dans une  
installation privée. Si cet appareil génère des interférences  
néfastes dans la réception des ondes radio ou télévisées, ce  
que l’on peut facilement contrôler en mettant l’appareil  
successivement sous et hors tension, l’utilisateur est invité à  
tenter de remédier aux interférences en appliquant l’une des  
mesures suivantes:  
TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT USE THIS  
(POLARIZED) PLUG WITH AN EXTENSION CORD,  
RECEPTACLE OR OTHER OUTLET UNLESS THE BLADES CAN  
BE FULLY INSERTED TO PREVENT BLADE EXPOSURE.  
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-  
003.

- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.  
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on circuit different  
from that to which the receiver is connected.  
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician  
for help.  
- Réorientez l’antenne de réception ou installez-la à un autre  
endroit.  
- Eloignez davantage l’appareil du récepteur.  
Cet appareil numérique de la classe B est conforme à la norme  
NMB-003 du Canada.  
- Branchez l’appareil sur une prise secteur raccordée à un  
circuit d’alimentation différent de la prise sur laquelle le  
récepteur est branché.  
- Consultez votre revendeur ou faites appel à un technicien  
radio/TV.
