Television Antenna Connection Protection

External Television Antenna Grounding

If an outside antenna/satellite dish or cable system is to be connected to the TV, make sure that the
antenna or cable system is electrically grounded to provide some protection against voltage surges and
static charges.

Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPSA 70, provides information with regard to proper
grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge
unit, size of the grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding
electrodes, and requirements of the grounding electrode.

Lightning Protection

For added protection of the TV during
a lightning storm or when it is left
unattended or unused for long periods
of time, unplug the TV from the wall
outlet and disconnect the antenna or
cable system.

Power Lines

Do not locate the antenna near
overhead light or power circuits, or
where it could fall into such power
lines or circuits.

Remember, the screen of the
coaxial cable is intended to be
connected to earth in the building
installation.

FCC Bulletin for New TV Owners

After February 17, 2009, a television receiver with only an analog broadcast tuner will require a
converter box to receive full power over-the-air broadcasts with an antenna because of the
Nation's transition to digital broadcasting. Analog-only TVs should continue to work as before to
receive low power, Class A or translator television stations and with cable and satellite TV
services, gaming consoles, VCRs, DVD players, and similar products.
Information about the DTV transition is available from

http://www.DTV.gov

or this manufacturer at

877 MY VIZIO (877-698-4946)

, and from

http://www.dtv2009.gov

or 1-888-DTV-2009 for information

about subsidized coupons for digital-to-analog converter boxes.
Your VIZIO TV comes with a built-in tuner capable of processing digital broadcasts, making it
easier for you, the end user, to receive this type of signal without the need of an extra converter
box.
