Important safeguards
12. Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table
specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the appa-
ratus. When a cart is used, use caution when mov-
ing the carts/apparatus combination to avoid injury
from tip-over.
13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or
when unused for long periods of time.
14. Refer all servicing to qualified service 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 objects
have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or mois-
ture, do not operate normally, or has been dropped.
15. If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the product, 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 (Section 54 of Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1)
provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and support-
ing structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna-discharge unit, size of
grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to ground-
ing electrode. See following example.

Troubleshooting VHF/UHF reception
The most common types of television interference are as follows:
SNOWY PICTURE
Snowy picture is usually due to weak signal. Adjust
antenna or install an antenna amplifier.
DOUBLE IMAGE OR “GHOSTS”
Double images are usually caused by reflections from
tall buildings. Adjust the direction of the antenna or
raise it.
RADIOWAVEINTERFERENCE
Wavy patterns are moving on the screen, which are
usually caused by nearby radio transmitters or short-
wave receiving equipment.
HIGHTEMPERATURE ELECTROTHERMALINTERFER-
ENCE
Diagonal or herringbone patterns appear on the
screen or part of picture is missing. This is probably
caused by high temperature electrothermal equipment
in a nearby hospital.
NOTE:If one of these symptoms appears on the screen
when input from a local cable TV company is
connected, this may be due to the local cable
company broadcast.
