IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

(Continued from previous page)

21. Grounding

Ensure that you connect the earth ground wire to pre-

vent possible electric shock (i.e., a TV with a three-

prong grounded AC plug must be connected to a

three-prong grounded AC outlet). If grounding meth-

ods are not possible, have a qualified electrician

install a separate circuit breaker. Do not try to ground

the unit by connecting it to telephone wires, lightening

rods, or gas pipes.

22. Disconnect Device

The mains plug is the disconnecting device. The plug

must remain readily operable.

As long as this unit is connected to the AC wall outlet,

it is not disconnected from the AC power source even

if you turn off this unit by SWITCH.

23. Outdoor Antenna Grounding

If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to

the product, 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 into con-

tact with such power lines or circuits as death or seri-

ous injury can occur.

Be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to pro-

vide some protection against voltage surges and built-

up static charges.

Article 810 of the National Electrical Code (NEC) in

the U.S.A. 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 elec-

trodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

24. Cleaning

When cleaning, unplug the power cord and rub gently

with a soft cloth to prevent scratching. Do not spray

water or other liquids directly on the TV as electric

shock may occur. Do not clean with chemicals such

as alcohol, thinners or benzene.

25. Transporting Product

Make sure the product is turned Off and unplugged

and that all cables have been removed. It may take

two or more people to carry larger TVs. Do not press

against or put stress on the front panel of the TV.

26. Ventilation

Install the TV where there is proper ventilation. Do not

install in a confined space such as a bookcase. Do

not cover the product with cloth or other materials

(e.g., plastic) while it is plugged in. Do not install in

excessively dusty places.

27. Do not touch the ventilation openings, as they may

become hot while the TV is operating.

28. If you smell smoke or other odors coming from the TV

or hear strange sounds, unplug the power cord, and

contact an authorized service center.

29. Do not press strongly on the panel with a hand or

sharp object (e.g., a nail, pencil, or pen) or make a

scratch on it.

30. Keep the product away from direct sunlight.
