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.  
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  
product.  
Overloading – Do not overload wall outlets, extension  
cords, integral convenience receptacles as this can  
result in a risk of fire or electric shock.  
3) If the unit has been exposed to rain or water.  
4) If the unit does not operate normally by following the  
operating instructions. Adjust only those controls  
that are covered by the operating instructions as  
improper adjustment of other controls may result in  
damage and will often require extensive work by a  
qualified technician to restore the unit to normal  
operation.  
5) If the unit has been dropped or the cabinet has been  
damaged.  
6) When the unit exhibits a distinct change in  
performance - this indicates a need for service.  
Do not attempt to service this unit yourself as opening  
or removing covers may expose you to dangerous  
voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified  
service personnel.  
Replacement Parts – When replacement parts are  
required, be sure the service technician has used  
replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or  
having the same characteristics as the original part.  
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric  
shock or other hazards.  
Safety Check – Upon the completion of any service or  
repairs to this unit, ask the service technician to perform  
safety checks to determine that the unit is in proper  
operating condition.  
Lightning  
For added protection for this unit receiver during a  
lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and  
unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall  
outlet. This will prevent damage to the unit due to  
lightning and powerline surges.
