Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or

grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with

one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two

blades and third grounding prong. The wide blade or third

prong are provided for your safety. When the provided

plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for

Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched

particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point

where they exit from the apparatus.

Only use attachments/accessories specified by the

manufacturer.

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

specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the appara-

tus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the

cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when un-

used for long periods of time.

Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is

required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way,

such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has

been spilled or objects have fallen into apparatus, the appara-

tus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate

normally, or has been dropped.

Damage Requiring Service - The appliance should be

serviced by qualified service personnel when:

A. The power supply cord or the plug has been damaged;

B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the

appliance;

C. The appliance has been exposed to rain

D. The appliance does not appear to operate normally or

exhibits a marked change in performance;

E. The appliance has been dropped, or the enclosure dam-

aged.

Tilt/Stability - All televisions must comply with

recommended international global safety standards for tilt

and stability properties of its cabinet design.

• Do not compromise these design standards by applying

excessive pull force to the front, or top, of the cabinet

which could ultimately overturn the product.

• Also, do not endanger yourself, or children, by placing

electronic equipment/toys on the top of the cabinet. Such

items could unsuspectingly fall from the top of the set and

cause product damage and/or personal injury.

Wall or Ceiling Mounting - The appliance should be

mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the

manufacturer.

Power Lines - An outdoor antenna should be located away

from power lines.

Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna is

connected to the receiver, 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 Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA

No. 70-1984, provides information with respect to proper

grounding of the mast and supporting structure, ground-

ing of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of

grounding connectors, location of antenna-discharge unit,

connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for

the grounding electrode. See Figure below.

Object and Liquid Entry - Care should be taken so that

objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclo-

sure through openings.

Battery Usage CAUTION - To prevent battery leakage

that may result in bodily injury, property damage, or

damage to the unit:

• Install all batteries correctly, with + and - aligned as

marked on the unit.

• Do not mix batteries (old and new or carbon and

alkaline, etc.).

• Remove batteries when the unit is not used for a long

time.

820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall

be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
