IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

For your protection, please read these instructions
completely, and keep this manual for future reference.

Carefully observe and comply with all warnings, cautions
and instructions placed on the set, or described in the

operating instructions or service manual.

WARNING

To guard against injury, the following basic safety

precautions should be observed in the installation, use, and
servicing of the set.

Use
Power Sources

This set should be operated only from

the type of power source indicated on
the serial/model plate. If you are not

sure of the type of electrical power
supplied to your home, consult your

dealer or local power company. For
those sets designed to operate from

battery power, refer to the operating instructions.

Grounding or Polarization

This set may be equipped with a polarized alternating current
line plug (a plug having one blade wider than other). This

plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety
feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the

outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug still fails to fit, contact
your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat

the safety purpose of the polarized plug.

For the set with a polarized AC power cord plug

This plug will fit into the power outlet

only one way. This is a safety feature.
If you are unable to insert the plug

fully into the outlet, try reversing the
plug. If the plug still fails to fit, contact

your electrician to have a suitable outlet installed. Do not
defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug by forcing it in.

Alternate Warning

For the set with a three-wire grounding type AC plug

This plug will only fit into a

grounding-type power outlet. This is
a safety feature. If you are unable to

insert the plug into the outlet, contact
your electrician to have a suitable

outlet installed. Do not defeat the
safety purpose of the grounding plug.

Overloading

Do not overload wall

outlets, extension
cords or convenience

receptacles beyond
their capacity, since

this can result in fire
or electric shock.

Always turn the set off when it is not to be used. When the
set is left unattended and unused for long periods of time,

unplug it from the wall outlet as a precaution against the
possibility of an internal malfunction that could create a fire

hazard.
Do not disconnect the antenna or the power cord during a

heavy storm. Lightning may strike while you are holding
the cable or cord, causing serious injury. Turn off your TV

and wait for the weather to improve.

Corrosion

Use of this TV near the seashore may subject the set to
excessive salt, corrosion and internal damage and result in

deterioration of the TV's performance. If the set will be
subjected to these conditions, steps should be taken to

reduce the humidity and temperature of the area where the
TV is located.

Object and Liquid Entry

Never push objects of any kind into the set

through the cabinet slots as they may touch
dangerous voltage points or short out parts

that could result in a fire or electric shock.
Never spill liquid of any kind on the set.

Attachments

Do not use attachments not recommended

by the manufacturer, as they may cause
hazards.

Do not place any objects, especially heavy
objects, on top of the set. The object may

fall from the set, causing injury.

Cleaning

Unplug the set from the wall outlet before
cleaning or polishing it. Do not use liquid

cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a cloth
lightly dampened with water for cleaning

the exterior of the set.

If a snapping or popping sound from a TV set

is continuous or frequent while the TV is
operating, unplug the TV and consult your
dealer or service technician. It is normal for

some TV sets to make occasional snapping or
popping sounds, particularly when being

turned on or off.

Installation

Always use two or more people to lift or move the set. The

set is heavy and the bottom surface is flat. Serious injury can
result from trying to move the set by yourself alone, or from

unsteady handling.
Install the set on a stable, level surface.

Water and Moisture

Do not use power-line
operated sets near water —

for example, near a bathtub,
washbowl, kitchen sink, or

laundry tub, in a wet
basement, or near a

swimming pool, etc.

Accessories

Do not place the set on an
unstable cart, stand,

tripod, bracket, table, or
shelf. The set may fall,

causing serious injury to a
child or an adult, and

serious damage to the set.
Use only a cart or stand recommended by the manufacturer for

the specific model of TV. Any mounting of the product should
follow the manufacturer’s instructions, and should use a

mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer. An
appliance and cart combination should be moved with care.

Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause
the appliance and cart combination to overturn.
