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.

damp cloth for cleaning.

2. Attachments Do not use attachments not recommended by

the product manufacturer as they may cause hazards.

3. Water and Moisture This product shall not be exposed to

dripping and splashing for example, near a bath tub, wash

bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub; in a wet basement; or near a

swimming pool; and the like. Do not place an object containing

liquid, such as a flower vase, on the appliance.

4. Accessories Do not place this product on an

unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The

product may fall, causing serious injury to a child

or adult, and serious damage to the product.

Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or

table recommended by the manufacturer. Any mounting of

and should use a mounting accessory recommended by the

manufacturer. A product and cart combination should be moved

with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may

cause the product and cart combination to overturn.

5. Ventilation Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for

ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the product and

to protect it from overheating, and these openings must not be

blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by
