Important Safety Precautions
9. Power-Cord Protection
Power- supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or
pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at
plug, wall outlets, and the point where they exit from the TV. MAIN plug is used as the
disconnect device, the disconnect device shall remain readily operable.
10. Lightning
For added protection for this TV during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended
and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the
antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the TV due to lightning or power-
line surge.
11. Power Lines
An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power
lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or
circuits. Where installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to
keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.
12. Overloading
Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire or
electric shock.
13. Object and Liquid Entry
Never push objects of any kind into this TV through openings as they may touch
dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that could result in fire or electric shock.
Never spill liquid of any kind on or into the TV.
14. Outdoor Antenna Grounding
If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the TV, be sure the antenna or
cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and
built-up static charges.
15. Servicing
Do not attempt to service this TV yourself as opening or removing covers may expose
you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service
personnel.
16. Damage Requiring Service
Unplug the TV from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel
under the following conditions:
(a) When the power - supply cord or plug is damaged.
(b) If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the TV.
(c) If the TV has been exposed to rain or water.
