9.
Do not defeat 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 third prong are provided for your safety.
When the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an
electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
10.
Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particu-
larly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they
exit from the apparatus.
11.
Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
12.
Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by
the manufacturer or sold with the apparatus.When a cart
is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus com-
bination to avoid injury from tip-over.
13.
Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused
for long periods of time.
14.
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is
required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way,
such as if the power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has
been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, or if the
apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not ope-
rate normally, or has been dropped.
15.
This product may contain lead and mercury. Disposal of these
materials may be regulated due to environmental considerations.
For disposal or recycling information, please contact your local
authorities or the Electronic Industries Alliance (www.eiae.org).
16. Damage Requiring Service
- The appliance should be serviced
by qualified service personnel when:
A.
The power supply cord or the plug has been damaged;
B.
Objects have fallen or liquid has been spilled into the appliance;
C.
The appliance has been exposed to rain;
D.
The appliance does not appear to operate normally or exhibits
a marked change in performance;
E.
The appliance has been dropped or the enclosure damaged.
17. Tilt/Stability
- All televisions must comply with recommended
international global safety standards for tilt and stability proper ties
of its cabinet design.
•
Do not compromise these design standards by applying excessive
pull force to the front, or top, of the cabinet, which could ultimat-
ely overturn the product.
•
Also, do not endanger yourself, or children, by placing electronic
equipment/toys on the top of the cabinet. Such items could unsus-
pectingly fall from the top of the set and cause product damage
and/or personal injury.
18. Wall or Ceiling Mounting
- The appliance should be mounted
to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.
19. Power Lines
- An outdoor antenna should be located away from
power lines.
20. Outdoor Antenna Grounding
- If an outside antenna is connec-
ted to the receiver, be sure the antenna 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, 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 connectors, loca-
tion of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes,
and requirements for the grounding electrode. See Figure below.
21. Object and Liquid Entry
- Care should be taken so that objects
do not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through
openings.
22. Battery usage CAUTION
- To prevent battery leakage that may
result in bodily injury, property damage, or damage to the unit:
Note to the Cable TV system installer:
This reminder is provided to call the Cable TV system installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the
NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding
system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
•
Install all batteries correctly, with + and - aligned as marked on
the unit.
•
Do not mix batteries (old and new or carbon and alkaline, etc.).
•
Remove batteries when the unit is not used for a long time.
23.
Apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no
