1. Read and follow all instructions.
2. Keep these instructions.
3. Heed all warnings.
4. Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
5. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus
(including amplifiers) that produce heat.
6. Do not negate 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 is provided for your safety. If the provided plug
does not fit your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
7. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, receptacles, and the
point where it exits from the component.
8. Do not use this component near water.
9. Only use the attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
10. Clean only with dry cloth.
11. Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with
the component. When the TV is placed on a cart, use caution when moving the cart to avoid injury
from tip-over.
12. Unplug this component during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
13. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Service is required when the component is
damaged in any way, such as power supply cord or plug damage, liquid spilled on or objects falling
onto the component, rain or moisture exposure, abnormal operation, or if the component has been
dropped.
14. If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the product, be sure the antenna or
cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up
static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984 (Section
54 of Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1) provides information 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, connection to grounding electrodes,
and requirements for the grounding electrode. See following example:
