Important Safety Information
Safety Instructions
• Avoid overhead power lines. An outside antenna system should not be placed in the vicinity of
overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits or where it can fall into such power
lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, be extremely careful to keep from
touching the power lines or circuits. Contact with such lines can be fatal.
• Do not overload the wall outlet or extension cords. Overloading can result in fire or electric shock.
• Do not insert anything through the openings in the unit, where they can touch dangerous voltage
points or damage parts. Never spill liquid of any kind on the LCD TV.
• Ground outdoor antennas. If an outside antenna or cable
system is connected to the LCD TV, be sure the antenna or
cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection
against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 810
of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No.70-1984,
provides information about 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.
• Do not attempt to service the LCD TV yourself. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
Unplug the unit from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under
the following conditions:
- when the power-supply cord or plug is damaged
- if liquid has been spilled on the unit or if objects have fallen into the unit
- if the LCD TV has been exposed to rain or water
- if the LCD TV does not operate normally by following the operating instructions
- if the LCD TV has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged
- when the LCD TV exhibits a distinct change in performance
• If you make adjustments yourself, adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating
instructions. Adjusting other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by
a qualified technician to restore the LCD TV to normal.
• When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician uses replacement parts specified
by the manufacturer or those that have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized
substitutions may result in additional damage to the unit.
• Upon completion of any service or repairs to this LCD TV, ask the service technician to
perform safety checks to determine that the TV is in a safe operating condition.
