IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLING OR USING THE TV
z
If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to
the unit, be sure the antenna or cable system is
grounded to provide some protection against voltage
surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides infor-
mation 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, con-
nection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for
the grounding electrode.

To ensure proper installation and reduce the risk of
injury, please seek qualified service personnel.
z
Do not use this product near water. Apparatus
should not be exposed to dripping or splashing and
no objects filled with liquids, such as vases.
z
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 into your outlet, consult
a qualified electrician for replacement of the obsolete
outlet.
z
Protect the power cord from being walked on or
pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles,
and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
z
Only use attachments/accessories specified by the
manufacturer.
z
Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table
specified by the manufacturer or sold with the appara-
tus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the
cart / apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-
ping.
z
Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or
when unused for long periods of time.
z
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Ser-
vicing is required when the apparatus has been dam-
aged 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.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT
REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). NO USER SERVICEABLE
PARTS INSIDE. REFER TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PER-
SONNEL.
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, with-
in an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the
user to the presence of uninsulated dangerous
voltage within the product’s enclosure that may
be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of
electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral trian-
gle is intended to alert the user to the presence
of important operating and maintenance (servic-
ing) instructions in the literature accompanying
the appliance.
z
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 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.
z
This apparatus shall be connected to a mains socket
outlet with a protective ground connection.
