IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)
27.Use an outlet that contains surge protection or ground fault
protection. During an electrical storm or when the receiver is left
unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug the
power cord from the wall outlet, disconnect the lines between the
reeiver and the antenna, and disconnect the telephone line.
These actions provide additional protection against damage
caused by lightning or power line surges.
28.Tighten all the coaxial cable connections only by hand. If you use
a wrench, you may overtighten the connections and damage the
equipment.
CAUTION—To reduce the risk of fire, use only No. 26
AWG or larger telecommunication line cord.
PROPER CARE OF YOUR EQUIPMENT
Always handle the receiver carefully. Excessive shock and
vibration can damage the hard drive.
If the receiver is turned on and needs to be moved, always turn
the receiver off, unplug it, and then let it sit idle for at least 30
seconds before moving it.
The use of accessories or attachments not recommended by the
receiver manufacturer will void the Limited Warranty.
Do not stack the receiver on top of or below other electronic
devices, as this can cause heat build-up and vibration.
On some TVs, the presence of fixed images for extended
periods of time may cause them to be permanently
imprinted on the screen. Consult your TV user guide on
whether this is a problem for your TV, what operating/viewing
restrictions apply to avoid this problem, and associated TV war-
ranty coverage.
