GROUNDING WIRES
10
POWER SOURCE
This TV should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type
of power supply to your home, consult your appliance dealer or local power company . For TVs intended to operate from
battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.
11
GROUNDING OR POLARIZATION
This TV is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug(a plug having one blade wider than the other).This plug will
fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try
reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the
safety purpose of the polarized plug.
12
POWERCORD 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 plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance.
13
OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING
If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to
the TV, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded
to provide some protection against voltage surges
and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA NO.70,provides
information with respect to proper grounding
of the mast and supporting structure,
of the lead-in wire to an antenna
size of grounding conductors,
antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding
electrodes, and requirements for the grounding
electrode.(Fig.A)
14
LIGHTNING
For added protection for this TV receiver 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 and power line surges.
15
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. When installing an outside atenna system, extreme care should
be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.
16
OVERLOADING
Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
17
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 into the TV.
18
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.
19
DAMAGE REQUIRING SERVICE
Unplug this 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 or frayed.
b. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the TV.
c. If the TV has been exposed to rain or water.
d. If the TV does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by
the operating instructions, as an improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require
extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the TV to its normal operation.
e. If the TV has been dropped or damaged in any way.
f. When the TV exhibits a distinct change in performance, this indicates a need for service.
20
REPLACEMENT PARTS
When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician uses replacement parts specified by the manufacturer
that have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, injury to
persons or other hazards.
21
SAFETY CHECK
Upon completion of any service or repairs to this TV, ask the service technician to perform routine safety checks to determine
that the TV is in proper operating condition.
