2.4 Precautions
Connect the receiver only to a power source described in this manual.
Take care when plugging in cables, avoid applying sideways pressure that might damage the
connectors.
Avoid operating in wet conditions.
For better performance and safety, connect the receiver to good earth ground using a short,
heavy, braided cable.
Ground all outdoor antennas for this receiver using approved methods. Grounding helps protect
against voltage surges caused by lightning. It also reduces the chance of build-up of static
charge.
