Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding type plug. A

third prong is provided for your safety. When the provided plug does not fit 
into your outlet, consult an electrician for the 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 any of the Planar 
PS5580 products.

for long periods of time.

of local codes and ordinances when installing your system.

12

Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when 
any of the Planar PS5580 displays have been damaged in any way, such as the 
AC power cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have 
fallen into the display, or if the displays have been exposed to rain or 
moisture, do not operate normally or have been dropped.

13
