The AC power cord provided with this product is polarized (one blade wider than the other). To provide power to the TV, insert the AC plug into a standard 120V 60Hz polarized outlet.
NOTE
Never connect the plug to an electrical source other than the one providing 120V 60Hz power. Use only attached power cord. If the polarized AC cord does not fit into a non-polarized outlet, do not cut or file the blade. You are responsible for having the obsolete outlet replaced with a polarized outlet. If you feel a static discharge when touching the unit, and the unit does not function, simply unplug the unit from the outlet. When you plug the unit back in, it should work normally. Do not install power cords near any heating element or cooking appliances.

Dear Customer,
Audiovox Corporation 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 this booklet to familiarize yourself with the receiver, it’s 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 or call us at the address/phone # above. Audiovox always welcomes comments and suggestions on this or any of our 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 all of your friends, and consider Audiovox when you make your next purchase of home entertainment equipment.
In addition to TV receivers, Audiovox produces a full line of audiovisual products built to the same high design, engineering, and manufacturing standards of 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
transistor failures can result.
• There are ventilation holes in the bottom and rear of the cabinet. Make sure they remain
unobstructed. Do not place 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 cabinet. The best cleaning agents are mild soap and a damp cloth.
Again, thank you for choosing this Audiovox product. We have employed advanced engineering techniques in it’s design, and manufactured it in one of the world’s most up­to-date production facilities. The result is a TV receiver that we know will be as proud to own as we were to create.
Very truly Yours,
Audiovox Specialized Applications, LLC

Slots 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 openings must not be blocked, or covered. The opening should never be blocked by placing the television equipment on a bed, sofa, or other similar surface. (This equipment should never be placed near 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.

9. This 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 feature of the polarized plug.
10. Do 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.
11. Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the television equipment.
12. For 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.
