12. Grounding or Polarization. This
product may be equipped with a polar-
ized alternating-current line plug (a
plug having one blade wider than the
other). This plug will fit into the power
outlet only one way. This is a safety
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.

15. Outdoor Antenna Grounding.
If an outside antenna or a 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. See
Figure 1.

16. Lightning. For added protection
for this product during a lightning
storm, or when it is left unattended
and unused for long periods of time,
unplug it from the wall outlet and dis-
connect the antenna or cable system.
This will prevent damage to the prod-
uct due to lightning and power-line
surges.
