NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). NO USER-SERVICEABLE
PARTS INSIDE REFER SERVICING TO OUAUFIED SERVICE
PERSONNEL

The lightning llash with arrowhead symbol,within an
equilateral triangle.is intended to alert the user to the
presence of uninsulated 'dangerous voltage' within the
product's enclosure that may be oi sufficient magnitude
to constitute a risk ol electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert the user to the presence of important
operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in
the literature accompanying the appliance.

Power Llnee- An outdoor antenna should be located away lrom
power lines.

Outdoor Antenna Grounding - it an outside antenna is connected
to the receiver. be sure the antenna 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 with respect to proper ground-
ing of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-
in wire to an antenna discharge unit. site or grounding con-
ductors. location ol antenna-discharge unit~ connection to ground-
ing electrodes. and requirements lor the grounding electrode. See
figure.

a- Use No. 10 AWG ( 5.3 mm?) copper. No. B AWG (8.4 mm)
aluminum. No. 17 AWG ( LOmm) copperdflad steel or bronze
wire. or larger. as a ground wire.

b- Secure antenna lead-in and ground wires to house with stand
otl insulators spaced from 4-6 leet (1.22 - 1.83 m) apart.

o- Mount antenna discharge unit as close as possible to where
lead-in enters house.

d- Use iumper wire not smaller than No. 6 AWG ( 13.3 mm)
copper, or the equivalent. when a separate antenna-grounding
electrode is used.
