type plug has two blades and a third
grounding prong . T he wide blade or the
third prong is pro vided for your safety .
If the provided plug does not fit into

12. Unplug this apparatus during lightning
storms or when unused for long periods
of time.
13. Refer all servicing to qualified ser vice
personnel. Servicing is required when
the apparatus has been damaged in any
way , such as power-supply cord or plug
is damaged, liquid has been spilled or

from the AC Mains, disconnect the power
supply cord plug from the AC r eceptacle.
19. The mains plug of the power supply cord
`shall remain readily operable.
Optional: Connecting to a cable T V signal
Y ou may be able to obtain better reception if
your cable company offers an F M radio signal on
your T V cable. The T rio’ s FM antenna connector
will accept the cable FM feed fr om most cable
T V systems that pro vide FM programming . T o
connect your radio to the FM signal a vailable
from some cable T V providers , contact your
cable T V company for assistance bef ore making
any connection.
Be sure that the installation includes a splitter
that filters the signal to prevent an y remission
of the T V spectrum through the Trio , so only the
FM band, not the cable TV signal, is transmitted
to the Trio .
Notice for Cable TV System Installer
Please make note of Article 820-40 of the NEC
(of USA) that provides guidelines for pr oper
grounding. In particular , this standard specifies
that the cable ground shall be connected to the
grounding system of the building , as close to the
point of cable entry as is prac tical. CA UTION:
When making connections to the rear of the T rio,
it is possible to experience an ESD (Electrostatic
Discharge) event. If this happens, simply push
theOn/offbuttononthefrontandrecheckthe
preset settings.
Optional: Connecting to an outdoor antenna
If you wish to use an outdoor antenna, we
suggest that, for safety reasons , you have a
