OWNER'S MANUAL
Ground outdoor antennas. If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the monitor, 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, provides information about
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.
Do not overload the wall outlet or
extension cords. Overloading can
result in fire or electric shock.
Do not insert anything through the
openings in the unit, where they
can touch dangerous voltagepoints
or damage parts.
Never spill liquid of any kind on
the monitor.
Bend antenna cable between
inside and outside building to
prevent rain from flowing in.
- This may cause water damaged
inside the monitor and could give an
electric shock.
Do not place an outside antenna in the vicinity of
overhead power lines or other electric light or
power circuits.
- This may cause an electric shock.
There should be enough distance between an
outside antenna and power lines to keep the
former from touching the latter even when the
antenna falls.
- This may cause an electric shock.
Do not attempt to service the monitor yourself. Refer all servicing to qualified service
personnel. Unplug the unit from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service
personnel under the following conditions:
• When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged
• If liquid has been spilled on the unit or if objects have fallen into the unit
• If the monitor has been exposed to rain or water
• If the monitor does not operate normally by following the operating instructions
• If the monitor has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged
• When the monitor exhibits a distinct change in performance
