WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR
ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS
APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.
Explanation of Graphical Symbols:
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol,
within an equilateral triangle, is intended to
alert the user to the presence of uninsulated
"dangerous voltage" within the product’s en-
closure that may be of sufficient magnitude to
constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral
triangle is intended to alert the user to the
presence of important operating and mainte-
nance (servicing) instructions in the literature
accompanying the appliance.
PRECAUTIONS
Read the Operating Instructions carefully and completely
before operating the system. Be sure to keep the Operating
Instructions for future reference. All warnings and cautions
in the Operating Instructions and on the system should be
strictly followed, as well as the safety suggestions below.
Important
This system is designed for the NTSC color systems only.
Installation
1 Water and moisture — Do not use this system near
water, such as near a bathtub, sink, swimming pool, or
the like.
2 Heat — Do not use this system near sources of heat,
including heating vents, stoves, or other appliances that
generate heat. This system should not be placed in
temperatures less than 5˚C (41˚F) or greater than 35˚C
(95˚F).
3 Mounting place — Place the system:
- on a flat , even surface
- away from strong magnetic fields
- at least one meter away from any radios or receivers
Do not place heavy objects on the system.
4 Ventilation — The system should be situated with
adequate space around it so that proper heat ventilation
is assured. Allow a clearance of 10 cm (4 in.) from the
rear and the top of the system, and 5 cm (2 in.) from
each side.
- Do not place the system on a bed, rug, or similar
surface that may block the ventilation openings.
- Do not install the system in a bookcase, cabinet, or
airtight rack where ventilation may be impeded.
- To avoid internal heat build-up, do not cover the
ventilation openings on the rear panel.
5 Foreign objects and liquid — Be careful that foreign
objects or liquid do not enter the system through the
ventilation openings.
6 Carts and stands — The system should
be moved with care when placed or
mounted on a stand or cart.
Sudden stops, excessive force, or an
uneven surface may cause the system
or cart to fall over.
7 Condensation — Moisture may form on the pickup lens
when:
- This system is moved from a cold spot to a warm
spot
- A heating system has just been turned on
- The system is used in a very humid room
- The system is cooled by an air conditioner
When this system has condensation inside, it may not
function normally. Should this occur, leave the system
for a few hours, then try to operate again.
Electric power
1 Power sources — Connect this system only to power
sources specified in the Operating Instructions, and as
marked on the system.
2 AC power cord
- When disconnecting the AC power cord, pull it out by
the AC power plug. Do not pull the cord itself.
- Never handle the AC power plug with wet hands, as
this could result in fire or electrical shock.
- Power cords should be firmly secured to avoid being
severely bent, pinched, or walked upon. Pay particular
attention to the cord from the system to the power
socket.
- Avoid overloading AC power plugs and extension
cords beyond their capacity, as this could result in
fire or electrical shock.
3 When not in use — Unplug the AC power cord from
the AC outlet if the system will not be used for several
months or more. When the cord is plugged in, a small
electrical current continues to flow into the system, even
if the power is turned off.
4 In case of lightning — Immediately disconnect the AC
power cord from the AC outlet.
Maintenance
Clean the system only as recommended in the Operating
Instructions.

if:
- The AC power cord or plug has been damaged
- A foreign object or liquid has entered the system
- The system has been exposed to rain or water
- The system does not seem to operate normally
- The system exhibits a marked change in performance
- The system has been dropped, or the cabinet has been
