••Grounding

-- (Except for devices which are not grounded.) 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 grounded AC outlet).

If grounding methods are not possible, have a qualified electrician install a separate circuit breaker. Do not try to ground the unit by connecting it to telephone wires, lightning rods, or gas pipes.

••Do not attempt to modify this product in any way without written authorization from LG Electronics. Unauthorized modification could void the user’s authority to operate this product.

••Outdoor Antenna Grounding

-- (Can differ by country):

If an outdoor antenna is installed, follow the precautions 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. Be sure the antenna system is grounded to provide 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 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 antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

••Antenna Isolator Installation Guide (Depending upon model)

-- Use this to install TV in a place where there is a voltage difference between TV Set and GND of antenna signal. If there is a voltage difference between TV Set and GND of antenna signal, the antenna contact might be heated and excessive heat might cause an accident.

-- You can improve the safety when watching TV by efficiently removing power voltage from TV antenna. It is recommended to mount the isolator to the wall. If it cannot be mounted to the wall, mount it on the TV.

Avoid disconnecting the antenna Isolator after installation.

-- Before starting, be sure that the TV antenna is connected.

	or
Cable /	Isolator
Antenna
	2. Connect to Set-Top box

Connect one end of the isolator to cable/antenna jack and the other to TV set or set-top box.

“Equipment connected to the protective earthing of the building installation through the mains connection or through other equipment with

a connection to protective earthing - and to a cable distribution system using coaxial cable, may in some circumstances create a fire hazard. Connection to a cable distribution system has therefore to be provided through a device providing electrical isolation below a certain frequency range (galvanic isolator, see EN 6072811)”

When applying the RF Isolator, a slight loss of signal sensitivity can occur.
