10. Outdoor Antenna Grounding
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. 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.
11. 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, ex-
treme care should be taken to keep from touching such
power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.
12. Lightning
For added protection for this prod-
uct during 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 prod-
uct due to lightning and power-line surges.
13. Object and Liquid Entry
Never push objects of any kind

ings 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 product.
