1. Read Instructions ­ All the safety and operating instructions
should be read before the appliance is operated.
2. Retain Instructions ­ The safety and operating instructions
should be retained for future reference.
3. Heed Warnings ­ All warnings on the appliance and in the
operating instructions should be adhered to.
4. Follow Instructions ­ All operating and use instructions should
be followed.
5. Cleaning ­ Unplug the appliance from the wall outlet before
cleaning. The appliance should be cleaned only as
recommended by the manufacturer.
6. Attachments ­ Do not use attachments not recommended by
the appliance manufacturer as they may cause hazards.
7. Water and Moisture ­ Do not use the appliance near water ­for
example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry
tub; in a wet basement; or near a swimming pool; and the like.
8. Accessories ­ Do not place the appliance on an unstable cart,
stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The appliance may fall, causing
serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the
appliance. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table
recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with the appliance.
Any mounting of the appliance should follow the manufacturer's
instructions, and should use a mounting accessory
recommended by the manufacturer.
9. An appliance and cart combination
should be moved with care. Quick
stops, excessive force, and uneven
surfaces may cause the appliance
and cart combination to overturn.
10.Ventilation ­ Slots and openings in
the cabinet are provided for
ventilation and to ensure reliable
operation of the appliance and to protect it from overheating, and
these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings
should never be blocked by placing the appliance on a bed, sofa,
rug, or other similar surface. The appliance should not be placed
in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper
ventilation is provided. There should be free space of at least 20
cm (8 in.) and an opening behind the appliance.
11.Power Sources ­ The appliance should be operated only from
the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you
are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult
your appliance dealer or local power company.
12.Grounding or Polarization ­ The appliance may be equipped
with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one
blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet
only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert
the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug
should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your
obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized
plug.
13.Power-Cord Protection ­ Power-supply cords should be routed
so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items
placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords
at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit
from the appliance.
14.Outdoor Antenna Grounding ­ If an outside antenna or cable
system is connected to the appliance, be sure the antenna or
cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection
against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of
the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 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 Figure 1.
15.Lightning ­ For added protection for the appliance 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
appliance due to lightning and power-line surges.
16.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.
17.Overloading ­ Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or
integral convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire
or electric shock.
18.Object and Liquid Entry ­ Never push objects of any kind into
the appliance through openings as they may touch dangerous
voltage points or short-out parts that could result in a fire or
electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the appliance.
19.Servicing ­ Do not attempt to service the appliance yourself as
opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous
voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service
personnel.
20.Damage Requiring Service ­ Unplug the appliance form the
wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel
under the following conditions:
A. When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged,
B. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the
appliance,
C. If the appliance has been exposed to rain or water,
D. If the appliance does not operate normally by following the
operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are
covered by the operating instructions as an improper
adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will
often require extensive work by a qualified technician to
restore the appliance to its normal operation,
E. If the appliance has been dropped or damaged in any way,
and
F. When the appliance exhibits a distinct change in performance
­ this indicates a need for service.

Features
Memory Preservation
This unit does not require memory preservation batteries.
A built-in memory power backup system preserves the
contents of memory during power failures and even when the
POWER switch is set to OFF.
The POWER switch must be set to ON in order to charge the
backups system. The memory preservation period after the unit
has been turned off varies depending on climate and
placement of the unit. On average, memory contents are
protected over a period of a few weeks after the time the unit
has been turned off. This period is shorter when the unit is
exposed to a very humid climate.
