Things to DO Before Connecting
Components
Protect your components from power surges
•
Connect all components before plugging any power
cords into the wall outlet.
•
Always turn off the TV and/or component before you
connect or disconnect any cables.
Position cables correctly to avoid
audio hum or interference
•
Insert all cable plugs firmly into their jacks.
•
Place the audio/video cables to the sides of the TV’s
back panel instead of straight down the middle after
you connect your components.
•
Try not to coil any twin-lead cables and keep them
away from the audio/video cables as much as possible.
•
Make sure all antennas and cables are properly
grounded. Refer to the Safety Tips sheet packed with
your TV.
Protect your components from
overheating
•
Do not block ventilation holes in any of the
components. Arrange the components so that air can
circulate freely.
•
Do not stack components.
•
Allow adequate ventilation when placing your
components in a stand.
•
Place an amplifier on the top shelf of the stand so
heated air rising from it will not flow around other
components.
Important:
This section assumes that you have
already used the Interactive Setup
