Safety Instructions

Please read these instructions carefully.

This product complies with all applicable U.S. federal safety requirements, as well as those of the Canadian Standards Association.

1. Cleaning

Always unplug the TV before cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use a soft, dry cloth to clean.

2. Water and Moisture

Do not use this TV near water. Avoid using this TV in an excessively damp environment.

3. Stand

This TV should always be placed on a solid, sturdy surface.

4. Ventilation

To prevent overheating, do not block or obstruct the vent openings on the TV's back panel. Also, avoid placing this TV in a confined area with poor air flow.

5. Power Sources

This TV should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your electronics retailer or local power company.

6. Power Cord Polarization

This TV is equipped with a three-wire grounding type plug, a plug with a third (grounding) pin. As a safety feature, this plug will only fit into a grounded power outlet. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact your electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type plug.

7. Power Cord Protection

Power-supply cords should be routed, so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them. Pay particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the TV.

8. Lightning

To protect the TV during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the TV from lightning and power-line surges.

Safety Instructions

9. Outdoor Antenna Grounding

If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the TV, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code (U.S. A.), ANSI / NFPA 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 grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

10. Power Lines

An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall on to 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.

11. Overloading

Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

12. Object and Liquid Entry

Never push objects of any kind into this TV through openings 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 or inside the TV.

13. Servicing

Do not attempt to service this TV yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to a qualified service technician.

14. Damage Requiring Service

Unplug from the wall outlet and refer servicing to a qualified service technician under the following conditions:

a. If the power-supply cord or plug is damaged.
b. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the product.
c. If the TV has been exposed to rain or water.
