This equipment has been tested and found to comply

with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to

Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed

to provide reasonable protection against harmful

interference in a residential installation. This equipment

generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy

and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that

interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to
radio or television reception, which can be determined
by turning the equipment off and on, the user is

encouraged to try to correct the interference by one
or more of the following measures:

- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

- Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver.

- Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiver is connected.

-Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIREAND ELECTRIC
SHOCK. DO NOT EXPOSETHIS PRODUCT TO
RAIN OR MOISTURE.

of the building, as close to the point of the cable entry
as practical.

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two condi-

tions: (1) This device may not cause (harmful)
interference, and (2) this device must accept any

interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation (of the device).

Any changes or modifications in construction of this
device which are not expressly approved by the party

Heed all warnings.
Follow all instructions.

O Do not use this apparatus near water.

O Clean only with dry cloth.

O Do not block ventilation openings. Install in

accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

any

Protect the power cord from being walked on

O

or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from

the apparatus.

Only use attachments/accessories specified by

the manufacturer.

Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket,

0

or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold

with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use

caution when moving the cart/apparatus
combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

Do not install near any heat sources such as

O

radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus
(including amplifiers)that produce heat.

Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized

O

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 the third

prong are provided for your safety. If the provided
plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an
electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

O Unplug this apparatus during lighting storms or

when unused for long periods of time.

Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
Servicing is required when the apparatus has been
damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or
plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects
have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has
been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate
normally, or has been dropped.

2

Never touch this apparatus or antenna during a
thunder or lighting storm.

When mounting a TV on the wall, make sure not to
install the TV by the hanging power and signal

cables on the back of the TV.

Do not allow an impact shock or any objects to fall

®

into the product, and do not drop onto the screen
with something.

CAUTION concerning the Power Cord :

O

It is recommend that appliances be placed upon a
dedicated circuit; that is,a single outlet circuit which
powers only that appliance and has no additional

outlets or branch circuits. Check the specification
page of this owner's manual to be certain.
Do not connect too many appliances to the same
AC power outlet as this could result in fire or elec-

tric shock.
Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded wall out-

lets, loose or damaged wall outlets, extension cords,
frayed power cords, or damaged or cracked wire

insulation are dangerous. Any of these conditions
could result in electric shock or fire. Periodically
examine the cord of your appliance, and if its

appearance indicates damage or deterioration,
unplug it, discontinue use of the appliance, and
have the cord replaced with an exact replacement

part by an authorized servicer. Protect the power
cord from physical or mechanical abuse, such as
being twisted, kinked, pinched, closed in adoor, or

walked upon. Payparticular attention to plugs, wall
outlets, and the point where the cord exits the
appliance.

Do not make the TV with the power cord plugged
in. Do not use a damaged or loose power cord. Be
sure do graspthe plug when unplugging the power
cord. Do not pull on the power cord to unplug the

TV.

WARNING - To reduce the risk of fire or electrical

O

shock, do not expose this product to rain,moisture
or other liquids. Do not touch the TV with wet
hands. Do not install this product near flammable
objects such as gasoline or candles or expose the
TV to direct air conditioning.

Do not expose to dripping or splashing and do not

O

place objects filled with liquids, such as vases, cups,
etc. on or over the apparatus (e.g.on shelvesabove

the unit).

GROUNDING

O

Ensure that you connect the earth ground wire to

prevent possible electric shock. (i.e. a TV with a
three-prong grounded AC plug must be connected
to a three-prong grouned AC outlet) If grounding

methods are not possible, have a qualified electri-

cian instal[ a separate circuit breaker.

Do not try to ground the unit by connecting it to
telephone wires, lightening rods, or gas pipes.

Outdoor antenna grounding
Ifan outdoor antenna is installed, follow the precau-

tions below.An outdoor antenna system should not

be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or
other electric light or power circuits, or where it can

come in contact with such power lines or circuits as
death or serious injury can occur.

Besurethe antenna system is grounded soasto pro-

vide some protection against voltage surges and

built-up static charges.
Section 810 of the National Electrical Code (NEC) in

the U.S.A_provides information with respect to prop-

er grounding of the mast and supporting structure,

grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna dis-

chargeunit, sizeof grounding conductors, location of
antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding
electrodes and requirements for the grounding elec-

trode.
Antenna grounding according to the

National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70

Image shown may differ from your TV.

We recommend that you set up the TV close to a wall so it cannot fall over if pushed backwards.

Additionally, we recommend that the TV be attached to a wall so it cannot be pulled in a forward direction,

potentially causing injury or damaging the product.
Caution: Please make sure that children don't climb on or hang from the TV.

Insert the eye-bolts (or TV brackets and bolts) to tighten the product to the wall as shown in the picture.

* If your product has the bolts in the eye-bolts position before inserting the eye-bolts, loosen the bolts.
* Insert the eye-bolts or TV brackets/bolts and tighten them securely in the upper holes.

Secure the wall brackets with the bolts (sold separately) to the wall. Match the height of the bracket that is

mounted on the wall to the holes in the product.

Ensure the eye-bolts or brackets are tightened securely.

Use a sturdy rope (sold separately) to tie the product. It is safer to tie
the rope so it becomes horizontal between the wall and the product.
