TV/cable TV tuner cards)

External television antenna grounding

If an outside antenna or cable system is to be connected to your Gateway PC, make sure that

the antenna or cable system is electrically grounded to provide some protection against voltage

surges and built up static charges.

Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPSA 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.

Lightning protection

For added protection of any Gateway product during a lightning storm or when it is left

unattended or unused for long periods of time, unplug the product from the wall outlet and

disconnect the antenna or cable system.

Power lines

Do not locate the antenna near overhead light or power circuits, or where it could fall into such

power lines or circuits. When installing or re-aligning an outside antenna system, extreme care

should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits. Contact with them could

be fatal.

Warning When installing or realigning an outside antenna system,
