Dear Customer :
Emerson Radio Corp. would like to thank you for choosing this color television receiver. It incorporates a host of features designed to give you excellent performance for many years to come.
We realize that you’re eager to turn it on and begin enjoying the high-quality pictures it delivers just as quickly as possible, but we ask you to take a few minutes to read the instructions
in the booklet to familiarize yourself with the receiver, its functions and some features which may be new to you. If you follow the instructions, this unit should give you many years of viewing pleasure.
If for any reason it does not, we want to hear about it. Please write to us at the address
above. Emerson always welcomes comments and suggestions on this or any of our other products.
On the other hand, when you discover the enjoyment, reliability and ease of use that is built into it, we hope that you will tell your friends, and consider Emerson when you make your next purchase of home entertainment equipment.
In addition to TV receivers, Emerson Radio Corp. produces a full line of audiovisual products built to the same high design, engineering, and manufacturing standards as this unit.
Here are a few tips that will keep your TV receiver looking great and performing for years to come.
•Avoid putting it in excessively hot locations. Damage to the cabinet or premature component failures can result.
•There are ventilation holes in the bottom and rear of the cabinet. Make sure that they remain unobstructed. Do not place the receiver on top of a thick cloth.
•If you don’t plan to use the receiver for several days, it’s a good idea to unplug it from the power outlet.
•Many common household cleaning agents, sprays, solvents, and polishes will cause permanent damage to the surface of the cabinet. The best cleaning agents are mild soap and a damp cloth.
Again, thank you for choosing this Emerson product. We have employed advanced engineering techniques in its design, and manufactured it in one of the world’s most up-to-date production facilities. The result is a TV receiver that we know you will be as proud to own as we were to create.
Very truly yours,

Use only with a cart or stand recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with the television equipment. Wall or shelf mounting should follow the manufacturer's instructions, and should use a mounting kit approved by the manufacturer.
6A An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn.
7Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back or bottom are provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the television equipment; and to protect it from overheating, these opening, must not be blocked or covered. The
opening should never be blocked by placing the television equipment on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. (This equipment should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register.) This television equipment should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase unless proper ventilation is provided.
8This television equipment 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 supplied to your home, consult your television dealer or local power company.
9This television equipment 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.
10Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not locate this television equipment where the cord will be abused by persons walking on it.
11Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the television equipment.
12For added protection for this television equipment 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 equipment due to lightning and power-line surges.
2 Important Safeguards
13An 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 antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.
14Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in fire or electric shock.
15Never push objects of any kind into this television equipment through openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the television equipment.
16Do not attempt to service this television equipment yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
17Unplug this television equipment 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 television equipment.
(c)If the television equipment has been exposed to rain or water.
(d)If the television equipment 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 receiver to its normal operation.
(e)If the television equipment has been dropped or the cabinet has been dam-
aged.
(f)When the television equipment exhibits a distinct change in performance - this indicates a need for service.
18 When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer that have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or other hazards.
19 Upon completion of any service or repairs to this television equipment, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to determine that the television is in a safe operating condition.
20 If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the television receiver, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provided some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges.
Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA N0.70-1984, 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 conductors, location of anten- na-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.
