IMPORTANT
1. This television set is equipped with a
polarized alternating-current line plug
(a plug having one blade wider than
the 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 should
still fail to fit, contact your electrician
to replace your obsolete outlet. Do
not defeat the safety purpose of the
polarized plug.
2. When the power cord or plug is
damaged or frayed, unplug the
television from the wall outlet and
refer servicing to qualified service
personnel.
3. Do not overload wall outlets and
extension cords as this can result in
fire or electric shock.
4. Do not allow anything to rest on or
roll over the power cord, and do not
place the television where the
power cord is subject to traffic or
abuse. This may result in a shock
or fire hazard.
5. Do not attempt to service the
television yourself as opening or
removing covers may expose you
to dangerous voltage or other
hazards. Refer all servicing to
qualified service personnel.
6. Never push objects of any kind into
the television s 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 television.
7. If the television has been dropped or
the cabinet has been damaged,
unplug the television from the wall
outlet and refer servicing to qualified
service personnel.
8. If liquid has been spilled into the
television set, unplug it from the
wall outlet and refer service to
qualified service personnel.

impact of any kind. Be careful not to
