IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Important Safety Instructions for LCD TV
-
Read these instructions.
-
Keep these instructions.
-
Heed all warnings.
-
Follow all instructions.
-
Do not use this apparatus near water.
-
Clean only with dry cloth.
-
Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
-
Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
-
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding-type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit fully into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
-
Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
-
Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
-
Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
-
Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.

- Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
- If an outside antenna is connected to the television equipment, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built up static charges. In the U.S. Selection 810-21 of the National Electrical Code 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 electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrodes.

EXAMPLE OF ANTENNA GROUNDING AS PER (NEC) NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE
Note to CATV system installer:
This reminder is provided to direct the CATV system installers attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
- An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electrical light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

Care and Cleaning
The surface of the cabinet can be damaged if not properly maintained. Many common household aerosol sprays, cleaning agents, solvents, and polishes will cause permanent damage to the fine surface.

NOTE: THIS FEATURE IS DESIGNED TO COMPLY WITH THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA'S FCC V-CHIP REGULATIONS. THEREFORE, IT MAY NOT FUNCTION WITH BROADCASTS THAT ORIGINATE IN OTHER COUNTRIES.
This Sanyo television is equipped with an electronic V-Chip to interpret MPAA and TV Parental Guidelines rating codes. When these codes are detected, the TV will automatically display or block the program, depending upon choices you make when setting up the V-Guide system.
The V-Guide system contains both age-based and content-based settings. This gives parents discretionary ways of choosing appropriate material for their children to view.
Content ratings are represented by the initials D (Suggestive Dialog), L (Adult Language), S (Sexual Situations), V (Violence), and FV (Fantasy Violence). When programming contains any or all of these conditions, these letters become part of the icon that is displayed on the TV screen.

A rating icon will generally appear in the upper left hand corner of the TV screen for about fifteen seconds.
V-Guide Operation
Use this feature to supervise television viewing for young children. This television can be set to automatically block programs with content you deem as inappropriate for your children to view.
The ability of the television to block the reception of specific programming content depends upon several conditions: 1) The program must be rated, 2) Networks must broadcast the rating code data, 3) Cable companies must transmit the rating code signal, and 4) The TV must be properly setup to decode the signal.

It Makes A Difference Where Your TV Stands
Congratulations on your purchase! As you enjoy your new product, please keep these safety tips in mind:

The Issue
If you are like most Americans, you have a television in your home. Many homes, in fact, have more than one television.
The home theater entertainment experience is a growing trend, and larger televisions are popular purchases and are not always supported on the proper TV stands.
Sometimes televisions are improperly secured or inappropriately situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, audio speakers, chests, or carts. As a result, TV sets may fall over and may cause unnecessary injury.


Sanyo Cares!
The industry is committed to making home entertainment enjoyable and safe.
The Consumer Electronics Association formed the Home Entertainment Support Safety Committee comprised of television and consumer electronics furniture manufacturers to advocate children's safety and educate customers and their families about television safety.
Tune Into Safety
1 One size does NOT fit all. Use the appropriate furniture that is large enough to support the weight of your television (and other electronic components).
2 Use appropriate angle braces, straps, and anchors to secure your furniture to the wall (but never screw anything directly into the TV).
3 Carefully read and understand the other enclosed instructions for proper use of this product.
4 Don't allow children to climb on or play with furniture and television sets.
5 Avoid placing any items on top of TVs such as VCRs and remotes that may pique the children's curiosity.
6 Remember that children can become excited while watching a program and can potentially push or pull a TV over.
7 Share our safety message on this hidden hazard of the home with your family and friends. Thank you!
