IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

CAUTION:

Please read and retain for your safety.

Electrical energy can perform many useful functions. This TV
set has been engineered and manufactured to assure your
personal safety. But 

improper use can result in potential electri-

cal shock or fire hazards.

In order not to defeat the safeguards

incorporated in this TV set, observe the following basic rules
for its installation, use and servicing.
And also follow all warnings and instructions marked on your
TV set.

INSTALLATION

1

Your TV set is equipped with a polarized AC line plug (one
blade of the plug is wider than the other).

This safety feature allows the plug to fit into the power outlet
only one way. Should you be unable to insert the plug fully
into the outlet, try reversing the plug.
Should it still fail to fit, contact your electrician.

2

Operate the TV set only from a power source as indicated
on the TV set or refer to the operating instructions for this
information. If you are not sure of the type of power supply
to your home, consult your TV set dealer or local power
company. For battery operation, refer to the operating
instructions.

3

Overloaded AC outlets and extension cords are dangerous,
and so are frayed power cords and broken plugs. They may
result in a shock or fire hazard. Call your service technician
for replacement.

4

Do not allow anything to rest on or roll over the power cord,
and do not place the TV set where power cord is subject to
traffic or abuse. This may result in a shock or fire hazard.

5

Do not use this TV set near water — for example, near a
bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet
basement, or near swimming pool, etc.

WARNING:

TO PREVENT FIRE OR SHOCK
HAZARDS, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS
TV SET TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.

RULES REGARDING THE USE OF
THIS UNIT.

1. Operate only from the power source speci-

fied on the unit.

2. Avoid damaging the AC plug and power cord .
3. Avoid Improper installation and never posi-

tion the unit where good ventilation is unat-
tainable.

4. Do not allow objects or liquid into the cabi-

net openings.

5. In the event of trouble, unplug the unit and

call a service technician. Do not attempt to
repair it yourself or remove the rear cover.

could void the warranty.

* When you don’t use this TV set for a long
period of time, be sure to disconnect both the
power plug from the AC outlet and antenna for
your safety.

* To prevent electric shock do not use this
polarized plug with an extension cord, recepta-
cle or other outlet unless the blades can be
fully inserted to prevent blade exposure.
