This appliance is equipped with a polarized AC power cord plug (a plug having one blade wider than  
the other), or with a three-wire grounding type plug (a plug having a third pin for grounding). Follow  
the instructions below:  
-For the appliance with a polarized AC power cord plug:  
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 have a suitable outlet installed. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized  
plug by forcing it in.  
-For the appliance with a three-wire grounding type AC plug:  
This plug will only fit into a grounding-type power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to  
insert the plug into the outlet, contact your electrician to have a suitable outlet installed. Do not defeat  
the safety purpose of the grounding plug.  
Overloading  
Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords or convenience receptacles beyond their capacity, since  
this can result in fire or electric shock.  
When not in use  
Unplug the power cord of the appliance from the outlet when left unused for a long period of time.  
To disconnect the cord, pull it out by grasping the plug. Never pull the plug out by the cord.  
Power-Cord Protection  
Route the power cord so that it is not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or  
against them, paying particular attention to the plugs, receptacles, and the point where the cord exits  
from the appliance.  
Lightning  
For added protection for this appliance during a lightning 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 appliance due to lightning and powerline surges.

Do not use attachments not recommended by Sony, as they may cause hazards.  
ANTENNAS  
Outdoor Antenna Grounding  
If an outdoor antenna or cable system is installed, follow the precautions below.  
An outdoor antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other  
electric light or power circuits, or where it can come in contact with such power lines or circuits.  
WHEN INSTALLING AN OUTDOOR ANTENNA SYSTEM, EXTREME CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN  
TO KEEP FROM CONTACTING SUCH POWER LINES OR CIRCUITS AS CONTACT WITH THEM  
IS ALMOST INVARIABLY FATAL.  
Be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and  
built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code provides information with respect  
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.
